DeMoGoRgOn,

Was this the recent needle exchange that sent needles to our friends in Pakistan?   :biggrin

§ãJ¡Ð ساجد:
Needles? Pakistan? :huh

DeMoGoRgOn:
you should have seen the look on me face when I first arrived there, but I was too tired to go elsewhere and literally fedup cause I didn't like dubai one bit .. the cabbie was a cheater took, 40 riyals/darham wahtever the currency is, from me.
And all the hotels were fully booked, been to many hotels and everywhere it was like Sorry habibi! we are fully booked..  that didnt' leave me much choice.. you see, so I finally settled there without knowing WHAT WAS GOING ON THERE, but as soon as I entered the elevator I got to know things were gonna get a bit too kinky :P, but Alhamdulilah jitna suthra andar gaya tha waisa hee saaf suthra dubai say lauta hoon and I never plan to go back, its a bad bad bad place and I have this amazing quality of catching up bad STUFF quickly but Alhamdulilah FULL BACHAT .. alright I wasn't really expecting to see any FEMALE GUESTS, so pardon that dumbfounded look on me face, and I wasn't rude .. that straight face was to hide the embarrassment I felt then, hope that explains everything ;)

Andy Battaglia:
Hehe.....I think I know what you mean about some of the hotels. I was a bit surprised on my first trip there to see so much "activity" in what is a fairly conservative place. My second trip it was a shock because there was some big convention in town and the hotel I was planning on staying at was suddenly overrun with workers from the world's oldest profession. Yikes! I did end up elsewhere.

Ambareen, I'm so sorry that you weren't feeling well, but I'm glad you are doing better.  :hugfriend

I'm sure that all of us feel that we are at the end of our road and feel like giving up at times (I know I do), but we have to keep going and not let this disorder win.  I'm so glad that you came here to vent, because we are all here for each other, and no one knows the trials and tribulations of Thalassemia best than others with Thalassemia.  Please keep your spirits up.  I know it's hard, but please try.

I feel the same way about my ferritin.  I keep using my Desferal, and the numbers keep rising.  It's so frustrating.  When I went to get blood yesterday, I was actually excited to find out my ferritin level, thinking that I was doing really well with my  medicine, and that the number would be lower.  Well, to my surprise, it was higher ... a LOT higher.  Now, I know that some experts say that the level in the blood sometimes increases before it falls, because it's pulling from the organs, but I just think that I'm never going to get ahead, because of all the blood that I receive.   :-\

I'm sorry, this post wasn't mean to be about me.  I just wanted you to know that I feel for you, and we are always here for you.   :bighug
