Hello Everyone!

I know it's been awhile since I've updated. Hope everyone has had a wonderful New Year. I'm doing fine. I spent all of December and part of January with a broken foot. That wasn't a fun experience. My foot is still a little sore, but at least I'm allowed to wear shoes now. And after breaking my foot, by hematologist nudged my referral to get a bone density test along (since my general practitioner doctor referred me almost 6 months ago and my insurance uses only one facility and are months behind on their bone density tests). So I had one done this past week and I am expecting to get the results soon - I pretty much expect the test to reveal that weak bones, after 27 years of Prednisone, how could I not? Anyway, I will keep you updated on that front.

As for my blood, it has stayed fairly steady in the elevens the past few months. I've been tapered down to 10 mg/11 mg every other day. Still more than I want to be on, but at least I'm slowly being tapered down.
