Well my Asthma despite the additional inhaler is I guess dug it’s heels in , still right side.. so Boom I’m going back on steroids, they can really screw up my Bipolar so it’s a slippery damn slope, but hey ! a girls gotta breath.
As some of you might remember the whole Florida trip fiasco, well I told my husband that the trips just can not go for more than 2 weeks. He doesn’t understand 100% how hard they are for me but he certainly doesn’t want me to suffer , so I felt a compromise was needed , I can’t just demand only 7 days. It’s not fair to him, so 2 weeks, we both feel it is fair. At least next trip I’ll have a date I know we will head home. Mentally this will really help. I’m glad I spent time deciding how best to start the conversation. I didn’t want him to feel defensive.
Saw my Rheumatologist last week , my liver enzymes have been a bit elevated. Started about May, so again it’s still elevated CBC and kidneys are fine thankfully.
So I will be referred to a GI for a liver work up . I already know I have a fatty liver. So we shall see, I’m not going to work myself up into a panic..
Hugs for anyone needing one, cookies too

I'm glad to see you back checking in, but I understand the need to step away a bit.
I think that's wonderful that you came up with a firm compromise about future trips. That's huge!
I hope you don't have to be on the steroids for long. My husband occasionally has to be on them for his eye and I know how it affects him negatively, but unlike you, he doesn't have mania to worry about.
