Re: Update on squeek and her grandson

Squeek,

First of all, I'm glad Logan is doing better. I'm really sorry to

hear that you do have giant cell arteritis. Some of these conditions

are really scary, so I'm glad you have a doctor that is working with

you in a good way, and that you trust. That's so important!

I'm sorry you're not able to decrease the pred as you had hoped. I

am joining you in that boat this week. I had dropped to 17.5, but am

having tremendous problems and pain, so Buckner has be vascillating

again between 20 and 17.5 for two more weeks before trying to drop

again. It's really frustrating, but when we have our bodies kick up

in protest, nothing takes care of it like upping that nasty little

drug!

Well, I'm sorry that what you're facing is so hard, I'm thankful that

mine is just the " same old " and is easily attended to. Take care of

yourself and know that you are in my thoughts.

Love,

M.
