Hi everyone! I wanted to give you an update. This has been pretty miserable. The skin thing kept getting worse to the point that I had about 90% of my skin covered in lesions. The pain was incredible. Anyways, we thought we found a solution. As I was meeting with the doctor, however, he noticed my breathing was strange and sent me to the ER. Turns out I had a pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lungs) just to add to the fun. I spent about a week in the hospital on a double-dose of morphine for the pain and blood thinner for the embolism. I honestly wasn't sure I was going to make it, but I did and I'm improving. But my skin is still all torn up and red and I have no energy at all. Hopefully things keep improving and I'll be back soon. I hope things are well with you!

Keep getting better, Andrew. Glad to hear there’s improvement. Plenty of rest.
Damn, things haven't been easy have they? Keep recovering and resting and best wishes from me and the cats.
I wondered how you've been doing. Here's hoping you've turned the corner and get well soon.
Praying that things will be o.k. For you
I'm glad you are slowly getting better and survived the embolism threat. Rest and take care of yourself. Praying for a complete recovery.
Hopes and prayers to you, Andrew.
