Thank you, Suze

I really want to be good at what I do and make a difference.

Jannie - so glad to hear you're doing better! And I can't believe you're almost done with school - that's so great!

Gee, guess I could read a little before I ask how you're feeling... hahah!!

Glad you're feeling better.

Just a friendly warning re Ibuprofen in large doses.

Make sure you follow-up with your Dr regarding your kidney function. Just have them keep an eye on it.

Ibuprofen damages the kidneys when taken in large quantities. (This warning from first hand experience)

Thank you- I'm fortunate to have a doctor who is really sharp. I didn't take a lot of ibuprofen, but she checks all those things for me 2 times a year anyway.

How is your kidney function now? Was it reversible?

yah jannie!!

I am glad you are feeling better. After suffering in pain for a year they finally shot an epidural of cortisone in my spine and I haven't had any pain since...thankfully. Take care of yourself, dear.
