Hi Colleen<br />
<br />
Doing pretty darn good, meaning no curled onto a ball on the floor, flares. I am being treated for MP related back/flank pain. Treated for pain symptoms only. Taking 50 mg Tramadol with Tylenol before bed. So far pain is tolerable.<br />
<br />
I have felt the flare start but it goes away. Had my Dr. do a CRP blood test to get a baseline and see if it showed anything major, It came back Normal. I consider this good news.<br />
<br />
I am going to take a very conservative approach. My Doctor is very willing to work with me. Trying to keep tight control of Diabetes (blood sugar). Will eventually have another CT to see if there is a change.<br />
<br />
Giving thanks daily for being able to tolerate my issues. <br />
<br />
Thanks again for all of your kind support.<br />
Von<br />
