MIA's where are you?

Postby pwood62 » Sun May 02, 2010 1:30 pm

Has anyone heard from Jeff? I know he was in another relapse but it is odd not to hear from him. I pm'd him but no response. How about Crystal? I fret when my fellow C-Differs don't check in...

Roy- It could be that some of the MIA's just need a break from thinking or talking about cdiff for awhile. When you live it it easily becomes an overwhelming obsession. At times you just have to back away and regroup and BREATHE without dwelling on all the gory details of this disease in order to keep your whits about you.

I am regretfully one of those who took a break from this site, I needed to at one point.
I am still a C differ, been pulsing 1 pill every 3 days since last year? For the most part I canactually not think about it ,unlike last year its all I lived and breathed.

I still have set backs, days where things out of nowhere get "iffy" but for the most part, I am "controlling it" instead of it controlling me. It took a long time to get to this state of mind. I will try to pop in at least weekly, I think maybe I can help some who are new here and scared ect. Maybe a few here can still help me too , I am not sure there are many(I know of at least one here who is /has been taking it for years) who have been on Vanco as long as I have,and I do have questions about that at times!

Hugs, I hope all here are fine and wish alot of healing to those suffering still.

~Sue
Hoping for a cure.

Hi Guys!

I am sorry to say that I am also one of the ones that has been MIA for a while now. At first I did kind of need a break from the site for a while but, then things just got really busy for me. I am sorry that I havent been on for a while I am going to do my best to check in a little more often! I am here for all of you, I am only a PM away!! I am also going to update the "google alerts" right now!

Heather,
We all need "a break" from the site now and then. The longer I work on this site (10 years), the harder I find it to post often.

Thanks for your work on updating info.

Some evil genius sent a virus to my computer so it is fried and I can rarely post anymore. I am alive and well though!

Suezer- Glad you are doing well on the every three day program. I am still on vanco low dosage and keep trying to work my way down but each and everytime I have some medical problem which requires yet another antibiotic. I have been on some dosage of vanco now since 2001 and recently had my blood tested to see if I had any absorption and I do not thank goodness. Hang in there!
