Ok, two, two-week follow-ups with the doc. Steroids were making me miserable so he he allowed me to cut the dose a bit which slowed down the platelet building. Was at 149, then 120. But he is happy that I am responding at that rate.

Still watching and continuing the steroids and two week follow-ups.

Will be a few more months of that.

Thanks again guys for your support. Got a ton from family and friends too.

Has resulted in what I hope will be a lifelong change in my perspective...compared to not being here, just about anything else is fixable and not worth getting stirred up about.
