It is hard to understand what is going on with my body. Nothing makes sense, even the experts are confused.
I have to report for a full exam every week, with the local Infectious Disease appointee. Make no mistake, this guy is world class and a complete infection nerd! The man really is amazing. And he is stumped.
My body had turned on itself. Instead of fighting the infections, aided by the anti-biotic, my body has turned on the anti-biotic. So, I had guessed correctly that suddenly the anti-biotic was no longer working - or I was losing the fight. But, really?, kill off the anti-biotic!?!?!? Gees God, what is going on?!?!?!?!?
Add to that, my body has apparently now turned on itself and is attempting to kill off what is left of liver and kidneys! Really? It is not bad enough that every two decades they both stop working for weeks on end, but they have to be attacked by the very body they live in? GEES!
Every blood component is whacked - numbers are nowhere close to where they should be. My red blood cell count is so low that he almost ordered my hospitalization - again (could explain my exhaustion I guess)! I just love becoming a WHO/CDC statistic!
So, today, more blood draws. Enough blood that one of my friends suggested that I may end up with a transfusion after this one! No, they were not joking. Figures, drain Ivan Drago's last male descendent of all of his blood ... got to be some warped logic in there in the cosmic scales of esoteric justice! Well, at least I still have my warped sense of humor.
LOL - I have had little reason to smile for months, and that made me smile :)
Well, the next two months look to becoming extremely interesting!
And, of course, your prayers are a very much needed daily in my life.
