Janie, so glad to hear that you are feeling better. I hated the thought of you possibly looking at a reversal....now this news? Well it is SO much better than what I was dreading you would be telling us. Wonderful news!! Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks so much for caring. I was afraid I would lose my life doing the reversal if you want to know the truth, and if I didn't would everything work normally. Glad I don't have to find out. Janie
Tawna also thanks for your kind words.

I'm excited for you to be back ont eh roa dto health and I can appreciate what you say about eating all the time, i do it too right now. I got down to 118 and this evening I got on teh scale and I'm 127 after two weeks...
Hang in there and let me know what the doctor says next week.
Did they ever give you a TPN? that might help you some if your labs are still off.
