Guest guest Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Another session with my therapist. My emotional issues (depression, etc.) started long before my physical ailments. I feel like I'm making some progress. Even though I often feel terrible, at least I'm feeling... I got a CPAP machine for my sleep apnea, and it helps a lot. I've started on Imuran (immune system suppressant). It's too soon to tell whether it will be beneficial, but so far the only side effect I can detect is some slight nausea. My father's in the hospital, in intensive care. There's no diagnosis yet, but his heart was racing when he was brought in. He's eighty, and has Alzheimer's and only one lung. Even though he was a terrible father and I don't like him as a person, he's a major part of my life, and I love him and worry about him.
