Hey, havent been on in awhile. Trying to do my own thing and live life. Just thought the forums were getting a bit too negative for me, and I needed a break. Been working on feeling out the way my body works, and actually, have been improving quite a bit. I still believe boosting my immune system is the only way to beat this and so far, its working. My vasculitus is getting better, leg cramps are practically gone, energy is up, and my overall well being has improved. I see the specialist next month and im hoping to not only lower my prednisone, but avoid the cytoxin all together. My family doctor is amazed at how well im doing. All my blood work is normal, and i avoided taking a huge round of antibiotics when i had a vasculitus flare up. Just took care of it myself with topical treatments and didnt have to run those pesky antibiotics thru me. I truley believe there is a cure, and im still on the search... I know everyone is different and you have to know your body. I know mine. I will beat this. Sorry if I dont come on much, just need to stay away from being told what im doing is wrong. I appreciate the help, but no one has an answer, and no one is the same. We should all be positive and never accept that we have to face life with "a new normal", its a "temporary normal". Take care everyone!
