I got my 5th hickman central line on Monday. The infection is gone and things are back to normal, at least for me. I am hitting the treadmill big time since summer is just around the corner. I can't wait to go to Florida with the Eagle's drill team.
I know that I have not posted in more than a year. My life has been wonderful and full of living. I have been enjoying my family, bowling, knitting and riding our motorcycle with the hubby. I decided to post today because it is my 12 year anniversary of going on my IV medication, Flolan and then Veletri for my PH. It has saved my life. I had my Hickman central line placed on January 22, 2002. I started Flolan in the hospital at the University Of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI. I was admitted in the hospital for 5 days as my doctor increased the Flolan to a therapeutic dose. It was the most frightening experience ever. I was 23 years old, I had a 19 month old daughter and a boyfriend of a year. I was told to get my affairs with my daughter and my life in order because my PH was so severe. I was so sick that I was blue all the time, I couldn't walk around with out getting dizz...
Are you going to Orlando, or are you still waiting to hear about a scholarship?? I haven't asked you that in awhile, so I wasn't sure. LOL I'm glad your infection is gone!!
