Dearest Twinkly, I am very sorry to read that you are suffering with your spleen, , though mine was of mammoth proportion for a wee guy I was lucky down the years as it caused only discomfort (it has lost much volume after all the chemo but not so much in length) . . I hope very much that it settles down and allows you to get on with your busy life.

I don't like the idea of a grumpy Twinkly, , keep your chin up. .

Love your way , Chris xx

I'm no longer taking them. Had to taper dose down to zero in the prior to admission to Manc Royal. I was on 2 x 15 mg daily in the year or so I was taking them. I don't exactly know how all my treatment has affected my Jak2 status, I meant to ask and forgot. I've to go back tomorrow so will ask then. You seem to be on a very high dose.

Lovexx

Hello Twinkly. I hope you will soon be feeling much more comfortable. Bye Gill

Keep sparkling and keep positive. I've been listening to The Secret CD's in my car over and over again.. every time I start thinking about something negative I put a positive spin back on it.. I have decided to use the power of the universe to heal.. so sending you lots of positivity as sometimes even the most positive of us need some extra :) xx
