MM,
Thanks for letting us know you are okay. I am glad you don't have O.N. I hope the steroids and the pain medication combined, get you feeling better real fast.
With the steroids don't take much salt and eat potassium enriched foods, like bananas and yogurt, etc. I did steroids for 20+ years for relapses. They might take a while to work, or they may help right away. You never can tell.
Nap when you can, if the kids nap. Don't expect to get all your sleep at night. Even if you get a little at a time, it all helps you to feel better. Keep us updated, okay?
