Getting better

What a difference the last three weeks have made to my general energy levels.  I can now have a shower without needing a half hour nap afterwards and puffing my lungs up.  I was even able to walk to the local IMVS to have my blood test.  Took me a while but I made it.  I still have some way to go though as I do feel a bit tired most days.

I am still on the steroids so I am still taking insulin twice daily.  I am down to 10mg of steroid though.  Another couple of weeks and hopefully this steroid/insulin thing is over.  It is not much fun pricking my fingers three times a day for my blood sugar levels as well as two jabs of insulin per day.

I finally got to do some guitar practice after a three month hiatus.  My fingers/hands have stopped shaking enough to let me do some practice.  After all these months I feel like I am a beginner again – very frustrating.
