Ed started taking the new medicine last week and we think it's working!!!! He noticed yesterday that it wasn't angry red but just a dark pink, the swelling has gone down in his legs, the rash is drying out, and his pain level has decreased. He also noticed that he felt very angry all day yesterday - which in this case, is good! That's a side effect of the meds and once it levels off he can learn ways to deal with that or some herbal treatments to help. That is WONDERFUL news! Especially since he's on the low side of dosage and if we can find a med. that works for him, keeping low dosages is a good thing.
