Mike sorry this is so late but here it go,s I became very depressed and would

lock my self away for days at a time . I lost interest in almost every thing i

enjoyed all I did was work and sleep. I got very very big in the areas we never

like to as in gut,face,and well almost all over but were we as men would want to

LOL sorry gals . I never even wanted to leave the house after a bit and then o

my goodness I started to find my hair missing . Now male baldness runs in the

family but i like to blame the MTX now day but we know it is not all at fault.

it was not tell almost 4 years later life started to return to normal what ever

that is as i have never been normal so I would not know any way but it sounded

good . yes i also lost my hummer and now its back just as bad and raunchy as

when i was in JR high . in the end as I have learned to live with this and

adjust my self and life to it things also have gotten better in the long run so

hang in there

Changes

Can some of you share the changes that happened to you both physically and

emotionally?

I had a few, I had mentioned my memory was not quite as good. I wonder how much

of that had to do with running a fever for almost 5 weeks straight, sometimes

very high.My hair is different now. I cut it short when I first came home form

hospital and it never grew the same again. It came in thin and sporadic at

first, now my hair is wavy at the back, and real grey, my hair was always super

straight.

I had problems getting my sex life up and going again and was super depressed

that for a time I had to take a pill for this to happen, at 35 I thought that

was the worst, thank god that is gone.

My emotional status has changed totally, now the little things mean so much to

me and I find myself to be so much more emotionally fragile than I was at any

other point of my life.

I guess the obvious we all share is the loss of energy to maintain a perfectly

normal life.

If you don't mind please share, there may be some things i expeienced that I may

not have known that was realed to Stills

Mike...

Yeah, I lost 50 pounds in 4 weeks when i was sick, problem is i have gained it

all back 6 months later, probably could have left 20 behind for good measure.

The mojo is back and can't be happier.I am lucky as hell to live a pretty normal

for life for now, just a shitload of stiffness all of the time, don';t look

forward to 10 years from now, that is why I am determined to get as much out of

this body as i can right now.

Great to meet you marty
