Of Freedoms and Anniversaries

05 July 2008

I am finally free!

I am free from the negative side effects of prednisone (steroids). My nephorologist finally asked me to stop taking the toxic drug. As I’ve written in my previous blog entries, I have Osteopenia (mild form of osteoporosis). Also, my face and back have suffered from acne. And all these are because of the steroid use.

Now, my nephro told me that we’ll try to remove steroids from my cocktail of medicines. Hopefully, my nephritis will not worsen. I’ll know next month. I’ll keep you updated.

I’m free… thanks to your prayers.

On another positive note, it’s been a year since I declared myself a quitter. It was on July 03, 2007 that I smoked an entire cigarette stick.

Anniversary ko… ano gift mo?
