Well today is my day of feeling sorry for myself. I'm just so tired and done with this awful disease and medicine that makes you feel worse. I felt better before I was diagnosed. I couldn't breath and sounded like Darth Vader but I didn't feel achy and tired every day. I was diagnosed end of August. Have had 4 bronchoscopies and 3 rituxan infusions since then. Started off with 80mgs of predisone along with cyclophophosphamide, Bactrim, omprazole, 2 inhalers and singular. Am now on a high blood pressure pill and am down to 2.5 Mgs of predisone and taking everything but the cyclophosophamide. Got pneumonia after my 2nd infusion and the flu (I did get my flu shot) after my 3rd infusion. Scheduled for another bronchoscopy Thursday. I also work full time 5 days a week and oh, going through menopause and hot flashes all day and night! Im trying to not let this disease run my life. have only taken 1 day off from work since i have been diagnosed. i go in after infusions and bronchs. I'm tired, my body is tired, I'm achy and scared. So now I vented and I'm gonna put on my big girl pants and get through this. Sorry for the rant just needed to get this out. Thanks for all your support.
