Bartender! A Round Of Solumedrol For Everyone!..

Steroid drinks are on me!

In just a few hours, I'll be filled to the brim with IV Solumedrol in an effort to get this recent Multiple Sclerosis relapse completely snockered...this is what it's come down to.

I'm just hoping during my "steroid intoxication", I don't become a sloppy drunk, so to speak. I have a bit of *history* with steroids looping me out like a stumbling drunk in the past. You know the kind...stark-raving mad and skipping wildly down the lane! LOL Fortunately, I have an *in* with the county specialists who make those legal decisions whether someone needs to be (how shall I say this?) "put away" for a bit when stark-raving mad.

I've got my usual assortment of folks on stand-by, medications available to tranquilize a medium-sized "Dumbo", and three days off from work to entertain myself while I get juiced up at the steroid bar. Ultimately, my biggest concern is not what the steroids might do to me, but what they might NOT do, i.e., relieve this pain and numbness in my leg...I'm hoping for the best and that the Novantrone already on board will make fast friends with the Solumedrol and quickly eliminate my current condition.

I must go shower now and prepare myself for my infusion (by flexing my anticubital area of my arm repeatedly in the mirror to strengthen its ability to hold an IV catheter/Heparin lock for the next three days! LOL)...there's nothing worse than a smelly steroid drunk. Well, actually steroid BREATH can be worse, but hopefully no one will be near enough to me in the next three days to smell neither my breath nor my armpits!...

I'll keep you posted...unless, of course, psychotic. Then you'll simply hear about my adventures on steroids several days later after release from my padded room...LOL...
