Sandy

newbie is a relative term. Many of us here felt just fine like you do at this point. I was particularly proud as I was still eating regular food including pizza, etc, Good thing I had not discovered this board as unlike your matter of fact post, I would have attributed it to my visualization with the toy ray gun, or even manly man status. Then as they used to say in the Luci and Dezi show: "I'd have some 'splaing to do,"
Just a heads up that not only are the effects cumulative, the absolute worst is the first two weeks after all TX has stopped.
You are entitled to celebrate and I hope that you sail through the remaining weeks just as easily. A positive attitude helps immensely and positive expectations are a blessing. Last but not least: I am doing the exact same thing now, with tolerable side effects and will be done TX next Wed. Only in my case, my RO keeps warning me and warning me how bad it is going to get - even worse than the first time around. Let's both prove them all wrong !
