Hello!

I’m finally out of hospital and back on line with a brand new computer. I will start off by saying that I have missed everyone on this site and its great to be back on line.

I was admitting into hospital with a sever case of CMV, which they treated  with Ganciclovir  (spelling) and they were surprised at how fast I recovered from such a high level of CMV that I had. I am feeling pretty good, just still really tired.

My kidney itself is working well, and im just glad to be out of hospital.

Hope everyone is well. I have no idea how I will catch up on everything I missed.

Amanda

:clap; Welcome back Amanda,

Glad you are out of the hopital and you got a new computer. That CMV shit is horrible, my husband is also being treated pretty aggressively for it. Take care and get plenty of rest and fluids.  :grouphug;
