GPA started with me in the nose, and it got completely blocked - couldn't taste or smell almost anything back then.
For a very long time I felt my taste was off - like there was this sparkling...
Over here in Finland the recommendation is to get the vaccine at the latest 1 month before the RTX infusion, or 6 months after the infusion. Had my fouth vaccinne in May. I guess we are now being...
I think they said in this one book which I read that it was more likely with close family members, like 500:1 odds. While I think otherwise the odds would be 50.000:1. So that would mean that...
Wow, sorry to hear you got hit so hard by Wegs & cancer. You sound like strong person, which is awesome. Even though it really sucks to get Wegs, it does help us to better understand our inner...

Thanks for the info!
Sent them an email, and asked if they have an electronic version available, as shipping costs over here would probably be quite a lot.
