Day +236

The Erythema Nodosum was pretty much gone in about a week like my doctor guessed it would. It cropped up slightly again a few days later but it was short-lived.

I did get the chimerism results from the final test a few weeks ago and, as expected, no donor cells are present in my immune system. You can refer to the Day +174 entry for the implications of that.

I'm still feeling great overall. Started going back to the gym again this week. Hopefully now I can stay healthy for more than a few weeks at a time.

Day +221

The Z-pak took care of the sinus infection. However, either due to the medication or sinus infection, I developed Erythema Nodosum over the weekend, so I have annoying red bumps on my arms, legs, and feet that feel like bruises. There really isn't much to do to treat it. Eventually it will just go away on its own. My PCP said he could prescribe Prednisone but I'll gladly avoid  that and tolerate things until they get better. I tried Ibuprofen but that didn't help. I'll be referred to a dermatologist if things aren't getting better by Monday.

I still feel great otherwise. No GI symptoms, my appetite is better than ever, and my energy level is good.
