Covid Update

Hi all, a quick update to my previous post. I have had a couple of days of negative tests for Covid so holiday plans are going ahead as planned (as at this time!). It's been an "interesting" few days but I am feeling a huge amount better than I was, not 100% by any means but leaps and bounds better than I was. I didn't go to SD rules but did up my Pred to 5.0ng for four days. Will drop back to 1.0mg tomorrow and stay there for the duration of our holiday and then re-evaluate when back home.

Enjoy your holiday - all the more because of the near miss!! But remember, you are still recovering, Don't overdo things.

That is very true. Littlies don't join us until Wednesday, so another couple of days to continue the recovery.

I would take some extra Pred with you ‘ just in case’ but hopefully all will be well. Enjoy your hols.
