Dear Linda,
I am so sorry that you are having such a hard time with the doctors and that Al isn't feeling well. You need to get a doctor that is accessible for sure.
Don really didn't notice any change in how he felt when starting Promacta - but then he is on so much medication - 3 heart meds, Prednisone along with others. When he feels bad or tired it's really hard to pinpoint which med may be the reason. But as I stated before - they really started Al on the max dose right off the bat so he certainly could feel the affects of the Promacta where with Don they did a slow increase every two weeks..
Patti,
I forgot to ask about your hair.
I know that must have made you feel better - and so much more beautiful for Dean!
We are in Bethesda - had an uneventful trip up and don't expect any surprises. Won't get biopsy results for a couple of weeks.
Please know I'm here for the both of you and anyone else on the forums I may be able to help.
