Apparently I cannot predict the ups and downs from the steroid hits from one week to the next.
Last Friday we were in Wabash, having dinner with the Matterns and I was doing well. On Saturday we met with Mary Ann's classmates for lunch, again I was doing well. Sunday and Monday I crashed, Tuesday, after those two days, I was back to "normal" (whatever that is) and had a brief visit with my derm Doc to see if I need any zaps - I didn't. I had lunch out, back home for my afternoon nap. Then, Wed. and Thur. I was back into crash mode, not so severe, but not normal - my feet were bothering me more than they had for sometime.
This morning I took the steroid hit for this week. The up seems to be happening, and tomorrow might again be a good day, but I am not making any plans - as I have often said, whatever will be, will be.
I see the surprise on the faces of those who know I have MM but when seeing me for the first time notice that I don't look sick - not that I look good, that is another matter, but not sick. I often have to explain that I stagger a bit due to the feet problem, and I am very tired - but those in my age bracket often say, well of course.
I will report tomorrow if the day after the hit results, as it has in the past, in a good day. I am certain it will not be good enough to work in the yard, but we might get out and about for a few hours. I am also certain I would be a lousy caregiver, and I don't know how Mary Ann does it.
