Walking The Thin Man

In May 2005, I learned that I had developed amyloidosis, a rare protein folding disease. This is my story.

Out of The Frying Pan...

Last night I slightly reduced my water pill dosage in attempt to resolve the persistant nausea I had been feeling for the last few days. This strategy seemed to pay off, as today I felt much better. My heart rate is still high, but lower, and as long as I didn't make too many sudden movements, I was okay. There's still some room for improvement, but it's a start.

I still cannot eat too much in one sitting, as digestion lowers blood pressure and makes me a wee bit peaked.

I still don't know if the drop in my water pills will cause my edema to return; if it does I'll find out in a few days. I'm crossing my fingers.
