No problem. I wasn’t as sick as the doctors thought I was. I just had trouble getting enough breath. ;-).

I think my immunosuppressants HELPED. No cytokine storms, no clotting, none of the secondary issues that arise from inflammation that kill people. My immunosuppressants suppress inflammations.

But the action of the immunosuppressants is a doble-edged sword. On the one hand, they suppress immunological over-reaction. But on the other hand, I heal more slowly. So, it took a long time for my lungs to clear sufficiently to get me off O2.

Oh, I didn’t mean the medicine hurt, I meant the fact you are immunosuppressed!
