The good news: I have five days worth of prednisone for my lungs.

The bad news: I have five days worth of prednisone for my lungs.

Well, drat.

Better to have it than need it and not have it, I suppose, however much better still to not need it.

Making sure wherever you're sleeping is being maintained at ~50-55% humidity?

[commodorified]

We're keeping it a bit lower because dust allergy - which damp makes worse.

Prednisone is just vile, useful though it is. Tastes bad, has evil side effects. I'm officially Stupid when I'm on it, plus all the other steroid ickies. Makes me hungry though, which is just as well as this crud has made food deeply unappealing all week.

[graydon]

Food is good.

Boo, dust allergy.

Sounds like you're not comfortably far from winding up in an isolation tent; I hope things improve markedly in short order.

[princessofgeeks]

I hope you feel better soon!

[kalmn]

Yay breathing. Thank you for mentioning the stupid; I just finished a dose pack myself and had a week at work full of OH SHIT OMG OMG fixing things I'd forgotten, which I now feel less panicky about because I have hope it was steroid related and will go away.

[zillah975]

Yay! And boo! But mostly "yay for breathing." I hope you're better soon!!

The crud this season has had a particularly lingering cough. My office sounds like the ward in a consumptive hospital.

[amazon_syren]

Right there with you.
(I mean, in my case, it's antibiotics, not steroids, but y'know).
Lungs. <3
Is there any way you can enjoy the stupor that comes with them? Like: This is not me being Officially Stupid, it's me happily zoned out and having an easier time breathing while I mainline netflix with minimal plot complexity?

Oh dear!

Prayers on their way.

Boo steroids, yay breathing. I hope they treat you gently.
