um jan–

i say this with a sense of humor–but after reading your last response, i googled “michilen man…” i must say, i am not pleased with the notion of resembling this character–

gosh, i sure hope whatever physical attributes i may take on with prednisone, will subside as i taper–

i don’t mean to be vain… and of course feeling better is most important to me– but jeeze…

prednisone is the only thing that has done anything to improve my condition– these past weeks/months, have been intolerable–pain, immobility, etc.

my longing to be better is insatiable…
