It looks like I got two mostly good days off the medrol pack. Yes, it is true I could at least walk when I couldnt before. But, why am I hurting so soon? the first sign of anything was my jaws. I think there might be arthritis or inflammation going on there. While I was on the pred I had no pain or uncomfortable feeling in my jaws. I was amazed that it was gone actually as I had it for a couple months and just figured I was grinding my teeth or something. But after day one of pred. suddenly i realized my jaw didnt hurt anymore. Well, it does now. So do my feet, knees, thighs, elbows, and wrists. Like it just came back full blown? I should still have steroids in my system because the last one was this AM. I took my indocin though i was going to wait until morning, but if I feel like this this evening. Morning is going to be hell. You know what saddens me the most? It was only 3 weeks ago I felt great with little pain. Just a short time of stiffness in the mornings.... Is that going to come back? Because yet again I feel as if I have been hit by a truck that carried a tankful of the flu virus. I just want three weeks ago back. Not just one or two days of it either. Arrrrgghhh listen to me whine. Well, today was the start of my Jenny Craig diet. I intend to lose this weight no matter what. It actually feels like too much food for me, but it was nice to not have to think about
what I am going to eat or eating the wrong things and feeling guilty later. I wish I could put real exercise on the menu too. Soon... maybe soon.
