I think we've got it!

I felt one hundred percent better today. I took a Dilaudid last night and for the first time in several months, felt absolutely no pain at all. It was delightful. I just felt calm and free. After that week of hell, I finally saw the light and realized that I CAN live this with this. I slept soundly and happily, and in the morning I had a protein-rich breakfast and a Decadron. I walked on the treadmill, I worked, I went to see my psychotherapist. And no need for a nap. And no need for any painkillers. There is still some pain on my right side, but it's not that bad. I think we've got it.

Carrie called today to let me know that my blood cultures and all the pee tests came back negative, so that was a relief. She was really optimistic about how I'm feeling, and we both think this will continue.

I`m so happy for you! I was so concerned that you were having such a difficult time when you were fighting so hard. I don`t know how you kept your positive attitude, but it paid off. What a fighter!
