I started it late last week after getting everything straight with my insurance. I've read some positive case studies on it, so I'm hoping for the best. I'm being diligent in taking it twice daily. I also started the cortifoam, though I'm not consistent at all with that. Hard to tell if it's helping any, probably because I'm not consistent.
Sorry for the lack of updates. I started my GA position at UNLV last week, and I've just been trying to settle in and get into a routine. I had to miss Tuesday because I was running a low grade fever and just feeling like **** in general. So I figured it was best to stay in and rest instead of pushing myself and possibly ending up in the ER for fluids again. I'm doing a much better job of staying hydrated living out here that's for sure.
I've been eating mostly chicken, eggs, sushi, tuna salad...keeping it simple for the most part. I have an addiction to the chocolate chip cookies at Whole Foods. Still not sure if they mess me up or not. I've also been eating a lot of fruit (watermelon, honeydew, blackberries, raspberries). Things seem to be better overall, though I still have some bad days. Really hoping to make some progress before my next follow-up and come closer to a decision of surgery vs no surgery.
