been a while...

sorry i haven't updated in a while. nothing really major has changed. everything is about the same...sorta. im feeling better. i have enough energy now to do things and not get totally wiped out. like friday- i was able to babysit dominic from 9 to 4!!! and i wasn't totally drained! im watchin him again tonight for a few hours. im so glad things are slowly progressing. my appetite is ALOT better. im able to eat full meals and not just pick at my food. i haven't put on a lot of weight yet because the c diff is still there- im still having diarrhea (too much information, i know, sorry). so anything i eat really just goes right through me without giving me nutrients. so thats kind of frustrating. but, i haven't had a fever since monday!!! i do, however, still have a period in the day where i just need to sit and rest... another note: i went to the diabetes dr this past wed. they drew some blood and some things came back not-so-good. where i've been on so much prednisone my bone's minerals are gone, so i have really bad bone health. i have to take a new medicine for that. the positive thing is it is reversable-i can get those minerals back with this medicine. also, my estrogen and horomone levels were basically non-existant; so i have to be put on the patch to get my levels back up. just MORE medicine to take. yay. so ill start them early this week...

on a happier note: we still have the little ducklings and they are doing fabulous! i just love to sit and watch them- they are getting so big!

im going to call the dr mid-week to see what the plan is as far as the C Diff is concerned. so i will let you know how things are.

until then,

leigh allyn

Prayers:
~C Diff clears soon so i can start gaining weight and life can resume to normal
~the new bone medicine doesn't make me nauseous so i dont have to do the shots; and i will gain bone health
~my horomone levels return to normal
