Steroids to the Rescue

I've been living on pain killers for the past two weeks. The doctors have been seaching for the cause of my abdomen pain but can't find anything. Just yesterday, they are finally moving on with the best guess that it's an unusual symptom of graft versus host disease.

They gave me steroids to combat the disease and after one day the pain is 50% decreased. I suspect by tomorrow it will be gone. I'll have a clinic on Friday where I'm hoping they will give me my marching orders to head back to Alaska. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Until then I'm just enjoying feeling so good simply because the pain has lessened.
