Guest guest Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Sher, You are the one that motivated me to get back on line and let people know how I am doing. Since the doctor in Feb. 07 only gave me 1 year to live unless I had a transplant I'd say I am doing good. However a recent problem (which I suspect may have been triggered by the Valcyte not just the Prednisone) is my super sensitive skin. My skin doctor recommended Vit. C and B Complex to strengthen my skin when I asked him; but my dietician and lung doctor have me limited to the quantities I can take particlarly Vit. C. Am not supposed to take more than 250 mg per day. Anyway with the bruises on my arms when I barely bump something now my skin bleeds. Last eve my finger got cut and tonight I bmped my arm on a doorway and had to call my son to come over for first aid help as I had to apply pressure to stop the bleeding and he got the bandage and the antibiotic cream. I canceled my water therapy today because my cut finger was just too sore all day. It started to get better tonight & I was busy cleaning house when I bumped my arm. I suspectnow that I will have to cancel my water Therapy on Wed. I was mopping bathroom, laundry room and kitchen floors and really got worn out. I better get to bed now.
