Health update. Dr. Flenner called last night with the results of the latest C-T scan of my lungs. Darn it, the lungs aren't clear of the histoplasmosis as he hoped they would be. He said some areas that showed infiltrates back in the December scan are now clear -- but other areas that were clear in December show signs of the histo! Dr. Flenner said, "You shouldn't lose any sleep over it. It's just the nature of the disease." And it's the reason why I'm having to continue taking the anti-fungal medication for months and months.

Meanwhile, I feel good. My lungs feel more clear than they have in at least a couple of years. And I'm enjoying lots of energy. (My hemoglobin level is back to normal for the first time in months.) And I'm up over 80 miles on my road bike for the year, building up my muscle strength and aerobic capacity.
