February 2013

It seems at last we have turned a corner. The Imuran seems to be working well. The vomiting has stopped and although Dan does not have much appetite it seems like this flare is subsiding.

There have been no more TIA's and although Dan still gets occasional chest pains things have improved so much. He does not cry out in pain anymore so I believe the chest pains he does have are less severe.

I hope and pray this improvement remains. I am just dreading pollen season as in the past this tends to kick things off again. Hilary believes there is Mast Cell involvement in Dan's case which causes the overproduction of histamines. This in turn has usually flared the UV.

Dan is still booked to have monthly appointments with Hilary until June 2013. By then we would be into pollen season so we will see where we go from there.

For now, this phase seems to be over. I will write again with updates but hope an pray that we will never have to go through everything I have written about in this Blog again.
