Thanks. Has anyone *really* beat this or are we all just managing such so that we don't have the flare ups. Has anyone gone back to their former life at a full 100%? I don't want to be Debbie downer here but I'm curious how many can say that they've made it back all the way.
I'm mostly interested in those who have been on abx for three plus years.
I'm not completely better yet - but I personally know someone who was treating for 3 1/2 years with abx and is now in remission for over a year.
Under our skin - the Ranger treated for 8 years I think - he's in remission. (Abx)
Christa (Justin and Christa) - happens to be from my Province - she took 4 years I believe and is still doing well - has two kids now. I think it's been at least 4 years for her. (Abx)
And my husband's coworker - her husband treated for a couple years and is doing well - at least 4 years later.
That's a few examples I can remember at the moment.
