    Nothing new really to report.

    Nothing new really to report. Got the final  notes from doctor and there are so so many mistakes. I really am getting tired of so many insurance, clinic billing errors, and medical doctor/nurse/MA mistakes. 

    I am trying to get the gumption to write the doctor a letter, but for some reason I just can't.

    I was supposed to go from 30 mg prednisone to 20 mg per day, but I got it mixed up AGAIN. I went from 30 to 10 at some point and the withdrawal was horrible. I was pretty sick. I am starting to feel better, but have some residual side effects yet.

    M breathing and hoarsness is still declining, but not rapidly.

    I see my local pulmonoligist in a few weeks. I thought about getting a CT SCAN of my  lungs this month, but I think I will wait until late May or early June when I will have been off prednisone. My prednisone ends April 30. 

    CT Scans are expenisve so I want to wait until I am off prednisone again and see if it grows.

    This week I have to have some blood work done so I am calling my family doctor to test my lymphocytes and leukocytes since  they were high at MAyo.

    Thanks for asking about me. It is very kind.

    i hope you are better

    thanks for your update. I hope you will feel better  shortely, spring is coming!

    it is a full-time job to fix errors from billing and doctors. i always wonder  how much time I am waiting on all medical activity and how much time I could have if I do not need to see doctors! I have boxes of files and insurace bills days on the phone!
