I finished my last dose of atopica side at about 2 and we'll have my last dose of heresy tonight at 9 p.m.

Monday will be a rest day and then Tuesday I will get my stem cells back.
Blocking is going to get less frequent simply because I don't think you're going to be that interested in the different nausea and platelets side effects.
Maybe tomorrow I will do a hair inventory but right now I would say I have plenty of head hair a thinning of eyebrow hair, and a lack of nose hair.
I did get a new-in-box Norelco shaver (germ free) that I will now try a quick shave with.

EO has it right. Your posts teach and tell us that you're Ok. Kind of inspiring actually. If you are able to post, each will be welcomed. I do have a silly question: will the scent of creamed corn accompany the injection of your own stem cells... apparently that can be a thing based on how they are preserved or something.
The fact that they can target down to your nose hair is impressive. Only fast growing cells in whatever-you-call-the-mucous-parts. Thinking of you guys this week!
