Day 3 I just woke up and the soreness from yesterday has calmed down. I'm still sore but it is back in my normal soreness range. (strange to have an acceptable level of soreness). Since I have...

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...

Day 1 of being shot full of drugs.   I must say I feel great! My nose and sinuses are clear and the pred has me really wired. But then I have to ignore my burst of energy and sit quietly and take a...

Today I bit the bullet and called the pulmonologist. Of course he wanted me to come in. Prior to the visit I also had to get another chest xray. I started to cough violently while being xrayed and...

I have been battling a cold or something off and on for the past couple of months. Last week it didn't seem to bother me so I thought I was over it. This week it has returned...big time. I don't...

I'm starting to feel like a character on the Seinfeld show. This is an entry about nothing. The past week has been uneventful...and I'm sorta comfortable with it. My chest and ribs are sore but then...

I have found a great use for all my former entries to my journal. It seems as if all those entries could be helpful in appealing my disability claim with SSA. At least it prods my memory on doctor's...

I am back from a nice vacation in Florida and have no more excuses to avoid writing a journal entry...so here goes.  Florida was fun. We stayed in Ormond Beach which is just north of Daytona...

I don't know what is going on with me today. I am really sore and dragged out. I don't know why my energy is so low today but it is.Sorry for the brief entry but I am fried. I think I'll lie down and...

I am not as good about writing journal entries as I once was.  I think it's because baseball season has started and I'm a fan.  I really can't afford to attend the games much since I have retired...

Today started out a little more exciting than I would have liked. It's one of the problems that would not have happened in my youth (too bad second childhoods don't count!) and it caused me a minor...

3/30/2007 It has been a while since I have made a journal entry. There's a reason for this. I'm doing OK currently. I have reached a plateau where, if I'm quiet, my asthma doesn't bother me much. I...

I don't know what's going on lately. Although I am getting air I make all sorts of noise breathing lately. Sometimes it's a reed like whistling sound and other times it's just noisy breathing. I...

I have finally completed my prednisone taper. I took the last 5 mg pill today. I must say that I am feeling much better. I guess the pred did the job. It only took a little over 5 weeks. Still, I...

Old man winter seems to be toying with us. Just yesterday the temperature rose to 70 degrees. Now a new front has pushed through and they are predicting 5-9 inches of snow. (No wonder I can't shake...
