Update on Steroids

Just an update on what's going on with the steroid treatments. I went
on oral high doses two weeks ago, and stayed on the high dosages for 7
days. Since then I have been tapering off - tomorrow is my last day.
They worked - I have regained alot of sensation in my feet, and now feel
much safer driving. So - so far so good. I do really hate taking them.
I am starting to feel a little more human - less jumpy, less tired, able
to focus a little better. Of course all of this is going on during a
particularly busy period at work, but I've been working at home as much
as possible to avoid becomming an axe murderer.

So - for anyone else facing taking steroids to reduce inflamation and
get back some mobility, I am glad I did it, but it has been a tough
couple of weeks.

Ann - who is happy to be able to get around a little better
