Labs were fine again this week. I'm feeling a good bit better, but I'm not over the C diff yet. I still have a few more days on this course of Flagyl and they could prescribe another or something else if I'm not better by the end of it.
1. You talk about your labs being good. What tests do they do? 2. How do you feel from a Crohns perspective? 3. Did you have to have an MRI? If so, of what? 4. Did your eyebrows fall out?
2. It's hard to say since I'm still not over C diff yet. I felt great before it, though. Hopefully it won't be too much longer until it's gone and I can give a better answer. I still think there will be healing that needs time, but it's along the lines of feeling 95% compared to 100%.
3. Not specifically an MRI, but I had a CT scan of my sinuses and abdomen as part of pretesting.
4. They didn't fall out completely, but they did thin a good bit. They grew back really quickly, though.
Hi Patrick,
ReplyDeleteI have 4 questions:-
1. You talk about your labs being good. What tests do they do?
2. How do you feel from a Crohns perspective?
3. Did you have to have an MRI? If so, of what?
4. Did your eyebrows fall out?
Thanks
