Thanks for the update, Jackie.  Sounds as if you're well on the road to recovery, however bumpy it may be. 

For what it's worth, I've learned a lesson over the many years of struggling with various illnesses and that is this:  If I take care of myself early on in the recovery and don't overdo, I will have a better, more complete recovery.  If I push too hard and overdo it, I won't recover as fully and may experience more problems in the long run.  Having said that, it's very hard not to overdo when all the stuff you neglected during your illness is staring you in the face and saying, "hey, let's get on with it."  The trick is learning to block the voices, lol.
