A little bump in the road
Day 2 I was able to go back to sleep and actually got some rest until about 10 this morning. I may give the cat a run for her title yet. Big difference today though. I ache all over. I feel like I just finished playing in a pro football game...just without the cheerleaders or the money. Maybe I can convince them to send me a check anyway. They can keep the cheerleaders..my wife won't allow me anymore pets. I can tell them that I identify with the team so much that I'm even taking steroids. (Whoops, better not be saying that too much or some congressional subcommittee will be hitting me with a subpoena. That's another thing, what's a bunch of elected officials doing wasting their time on professional sports? There just might be a few more pressing issues that they could be dealing with..but I digress.) Today has been the down side of this wild pred ride. No urge to over extend at all. I'm pooped. I have even had some problem carrying on a conversation today because it hurt a bit. No problem typing though...when my hands don't shake. Pooped and jittery..there's a combination for you. Tomorrow I'll probably be up again. That's how pred works on me. ..sometimes up, sometimes down. I guess I'll buckle my seatbelt. It's going to be a l-o-o-o-n-g three weeks..Good night,Tom

Gosh...I hear ya. Sorry you are achey today...just keep behaving yourself okay? Sounds like you are counting the days until you are off of prednisone. You know I agree...it is the most awful drug that they insist that we take. Hang in there. Hoping the effects make it worth it...try not to dwell on the side effect part (like I do). Glad you are able to sleep. :-)
