Trending in the right direction

Pleased to report that the liver counts are coming down. Blood counts are remaining stable so nothing much is on the horizon until the liver is back to normal. Just continue with the prednisone and cyclosporin. What then? Answer from the Dr is "we are in unchartered territory". I don't get much sleep but I do get a lot of programming and reading (technical manuals) done. Have also ventured out on my bike and to visit work etc. It's good not to have so many restrictions. 12 months off work .... too long. Really can't wait to get back to work.

Much better trend

The prednisone and gengraf are finally doing their job. Liver enzymes stopped skyrocketing up. Hope to see them trend down next week and for the first time in ages the red cells have held steady enough not to need the regular transfusion either. Happy with that. Doctor won't/can't make any predictions and often answers my questions with "well, you will be answering that one for us". Apart from the "wait and see" plan, the hope is to be able to start tapering off the prednisone soon and then .... the "wait and see" plan again. Another bone marrow biopsy is in the near future to give muscle to the "see" part.  Would really love to get back to work ... that's what I'm working towards.
