Drat, darn, shoot, aaaaw crud. I actually went out for a fantastic dinner on Friday night. I ate a whole meal and had no pain and oh it tasted so unbelievably good. Filet of sole wrapped around crab stuffing with a hollandaisse sauce and a baked potato followed by coffee ice cream profiteroles (hey I got some coffee! and before you ask...I can eat dairy). Oh my gosh it was so fantastic. My husband was laughing at me (really with me) how much I was enjoying it. Yes I am gushing. He wanted me to get a second dessert I was enjoying the meal so much. He was smiling watching me smile.
Well..that was my first day of 10 mg. Saturday I was doing OK. SUnday I started hurting again and the aches and pains in the joints is back. I can't get in to see my GI until my appt on 3/6. By then I would be even done with the 5mg...since this was a STUPID round of 5 days each (40/30/20/10/5). Going to see how today and tomorrow goes, then call if the pain is bad. If it's just cramping and joint aches, will wait until my appointment. I really enjoyed walking and climbing stairs without effort and eating real food....OK maybe I have to consider the bigger emds more.....I want another dinner like that for my birthday on next week Wednesday!
