So as I said in my reply at the other topic (ILD I think it was called?)... the medication I'm on seems to be helping with my RP which is really nice! But the real test will be when winter comes. I still feel dizzy though... I'd really prefer not to have that.... maybe I should eat more salt... just kidding!! ^_^ I've been trying to enjoy my summer these past few days... getting stuff done, getting outside... but I still have to go get that blood draw yikes! Well, I hope you all have a good day... ttyl!

P.S. thanks for the hugs guys! I'm going to try to post one more art piece....

" Another work day. Have so much nausea this evening. Hope it is not a tummy bug coming on. Havent had one in awhile, but they take so long to get over. Guess I will go to bed. Started on high dose vitamin D yesterday. Nausea is one of the side effects, but didnt have any problem the last time I took it. Oh, well. tomorrow is another day. Have a nice evening. "
