dodged the bullet but...

...I have lots of work to do.

My Pulse Sox (Oxygen Level) was up from 92% Friday to 99% today, Wednesday. However, my FEV1 went from 57% (3 weeks ago) to 52% today. My weight also came in at 107 pounds when it was 111 (1 week ago). There was NO WAY that I could have kept the boys any longer.

So in 9 weeks I took a brutal hit:

10/08: Weight - 116 pounds, FEV1 - 64%

12/08: Weight - 107 pounds, FEV1 - 52%

What an experience...I have lots of work ahead of me, but I know I can do it.

Also, I stil am coming off 3 weeks of Tobramyacin and Cephepine (sp?) tomorrow. Wish me luck! Honestly, I slept so much today that it was unbelievable. It's like my body is trying to 'catch up' for the past 9 weeks. I must say that right now the exhaustion is the worst.
