Peeking out from behind the curtain

I’ve had a great deal on my mind of late. There is so much I’m now open to sharing and discussing that for weeks I’ve struggled to admit to even myself. Slowly I am going to peel back the various layers that I’ve been hiding behind. It won’t be overnight and will more resemble one of those ancient Tootsie Roll Pop commercials. Just how long it’ll take to get to the center will be a while. There won’t be any owls participating.

Today was the third of what will be 5 consecutive days of Intravenous Solu-medrol treatments. Solu-medrol is a corticosteroid that is considered the gold standard in treating accute exacerbations of Multiple Sclerosis. For quite a while I refused to admit to myself or others the reality of the situation. This is probably the worst exacerbation I’ve ever had with my disease. In any case, I’ve come to terms and am taking all the steps available to make progress. As time passes it shall become evident whether or not things will stabilize, progress, or maybe even digress.

At this time of night, I’ll go ahead and end. It’s late. I’ve had more than my fair share of prescription medications. If I don’t fall asleep soon it’s entirely likely I’ll be visited by human sized dancing bunnies compliments of Wade Robson. That’s for another post.
