 :yahoo;

I have been on PD just a little over a month and we have settled into it pretty well now. We have tweaked our prescription a couple of times and found the right mix. After bouts of muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, dehydration, and low BP we have gotten it right and are sailing smoothly. Knock on wood loudly!  :Kit n Stik;

I feel like my old self again from almost a year ago. It is weird to feel so vibrant again. This is good.

Thanks to everyone here for all the help, support, and information. you all have been a big help and comfort.

This is such good news. We all need to hear when things are going well. Glad you have battled through the problems and are feeling so well again.  :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

Congrats.  Write off the first month as your learning curve and enjoy the 'new life' that PD is giving you.  Keep up the good work.

That sounds great highway! My Neph is messing with my prescription a bit, so I've had a couple of rough days this past week. I see him for my monthlies tomorrow, so hoping we have settled down.
