What we call progress

[mrissa]

I was hoping I'd have another, so I waited to post this, but I haven't, so I'm posting it now:

Earlier this week, I had more than 24 hours without any vertigo at all. In fact, I had 38.

This is the first period of this length since Thanksgiving of 2007.

This is what we call a good start, and you are quite welcome to congratulate me.

Again: not "all better." But better. And we will take better. Oh yes. We will definitely take it.

Yay! What does it mean as far as potential improvements in the future? Are they more likely/closer in time?

[mrissa.livejournal.com]

We do believe this to be a result of the new treatment rather than a fluke, yes.

Heartfelt congratulations.

Congratulations indeed, and may you have more and longer such periods until it really is all better.

Hooray! That sounds like a definite betterness indeed, and very encouraging.

Glad to hear that it seems to be a result of the new treatments, too, and thus will hopefully be continuing in an improvatory direction.

Yeah, I know that difference between "better" and "all better". But some better is good, yes it is. Up with good starts!

I took a thrilling trip to the neurologist.

I know. The fun. It just never stops.
