The paralyzing terror of feeling ... well?

That would be nice....😎

Path results for, like, 10 different GI infections all came back negative. Working theory now is that I had a quick virus that leveled me and then vacated my system in flag-raising quantities before I submitted my sample.

Convinced the doctor to let me start back with 5mg of Xeljanz for a week or so before bumping back up to 10mg, just to more gently see if the GI side effects return. Turns out my psyche and my sphincter have been traumatized by a week of 30+ BMs daily.

Yeah....can well imagine the mental and butt exhaustion. Good all is clear for invaders....hope the change in med helps.

@ celeriac, I got a call from the Acreedo (my Xeljanz Supplier) yesterday to go through a question and answer session. She asked specifically about the side effects and I told her my experience and how it lasted about 10 days before it got better. She said many of her patients report the same about the D and Nausea but that most said it decreased after the induction period. Just letting you know. Maybe discuss with your doctor. Hope it gets better
