dale1k | @dale1k thank you! I didn't blame phlebotomy; I am over weight / high blood pressure caused it but didn't have sort term memory until phlebotomy ... just happened that that way. Glad your memory improved and gives me hope. HU didn't bring down numbers so hoping for phlebotomy will bring down numbers. I have no choice but to do phlebotomy; only treatment plan! I'm in so much pain, go to Walmart and need help walking, miss walking and going places. Grocery store last week , then I could NOT physically get food out of cart (no muscles) . They had to get my husband from the car and bring him in. Take the food and help me to the car. Active days are over. I used to do all my neighbors yards (free charity) LOVED OUTSIDE and OUTDOORS! Don't know if I will have legs 2023 - MF is heartbreaking! Miss my legs! Dalelk prayers and thanks for understanding ....
