September 29

Hi,

We finally got home from the hospital about 8:00 last night. The MRIs showed nothing new, and the 3-D MRI done on his neck showed no blockage in the artery they were concerned about. It seems this is all coming back to the steroids, so he's back at a very high dosage again. I think the plan is to lower it Thursday and then again next Monday, but then he will stay at that dosage indefinitely. He's definitely clearer-minded and doesn't feel dizzy when standing. But the stroke-like symptoms in his right leg and arm remain. Hopefully, time and therapy will diminish those symptoms.

Not much else for news. We're just hanging in there and hoping for improvement! Thanks for checking in.

Love,
Carla
