So, I went for a check-up with my GI today. I haven't seen him since my colonoscopy in June where I was told I am in remission. He still says I am in remission.
However, I am having some bleeding some times and he is concerned about that (of course). He is considering upping my dosage of Humira. He thinks that maybe the Imuran is now out of my body and maybe that is why I am seeing some symptoms again (he took me off Imuran a couple months ago due to it making my white blood cell count drop drastically and dangerously low). Basically, I am on a wait and see for the moment.
He also mentioned my weight. I know it is too high. He likes that I put weight back on cause it means that things are working, but is concerned about how much I have put on. I am well aware of my weight and I know I need to work on it.
Just wanted to vent a minute about it. Not really bad news, just more for me to think about and work on.
