Brief.

This weekend has been about stoicism. Or the lack thereof. The predinisone I was taking ended today. I started with a large dose of pred on Monday,and tapered down to the smallest last dose today. Mid-week things were starting to feel better. This weekend they are worse than last weekend.

My arm feels as though it is in a perpetual cramp. The pain extendes up through the scapula, then into my neck. The fingers on my right hand are now numb. There is no comfortable position. It hurts to type.

The Socialist threatened to run me to the emergency room today. I refuse to use the emeregency room as an after-hours GP. I can tolerate the pain until tomorrow. Tomorrow I’ll try and look up the neurologist who treated my discs before.

It hurts to type. I don’t think I’ll finish this entry.

  2. Oh, man. I hope they can help you, and fast.

    Doesn’t it seem things like this always happen on the weekend when doctors’ offices are closed?
