Yesterday's colonoscopy went well. The ulcer that was there from the chemo has healed and everything looks good. They don't have the biopsy results yet to confirm or rule out GVHD but Dr. Schuster thinks that it's not. I didn't need to get any additional platelets yesterday before the procedure because my count was 75. I was back today and got 2 units of blood so I'll have a full tank for the weekend. He reduced my evening dose of Prednisone a bit, too. I'm pretty tired right now. Just wanted to give a quick update. Thank God, it's good news.
Hope you're all well. Thanks for checking in.

Leah - so glad that they are thinking it is not GVHD. If that is the case, they should be able to slowly wean you off the prednisone all together. That will help you so much. Hope you continue to get strong and that all goes well for you. I am praying for you each and every day.
