I have been home for 2 days and my spirits are better! It really is something about being in your own home that makes you feel better. Well, this morning I have to get up early because I have to go and get my weekly blood work at Quest Diagnostics. I'm not really looking forward to this since my arms are already pretty beat up from my hospital stay and the constant blood draws. However, I understand this is a necessity for my Liver Team to monitor my liver enzymes and Prograf levels.

I decide that I'm going to drive myself since it's about 10 minutes away from my house. Well, I make it there and back home and I'm EXHAUSTED! I actually had to laugh because I was pushing for my doctors to let me go back to work when I was getting discharged and they said I think you need to wait, your body has been through a lot. Now, I get it. I slowly walk up the stairs (damn, it seems like they never end) and head to the kitchen to make some breakfast so I can take my morning pills. I'm on 60mg of Prednisone and I'm quite hungry these days, the vain part of me prays I don't get the "moon face" but really I try not to focus on that because I just want to get better. I eat, take my pills and head upstairs to get in the bed for a nap. I'm still quite tired so any chance I get to sleep I take advantage of it.

I don't have too much going on today! Thursday's are a waiting game...I go and get my bloodwork and wait for a call from the team to discuss results and possible adjustments for my medicines. I am still itchy so I've been taking a Benadryl to help me out a little so I don't dig into my skin.

So for now...I just wait!
