I'm here. Feeling like crap, but planning on doing a little walking tomorrow because I've got some seriously swollen feet from the nasty steroids bugging me. (I'll take any suggestions on what to do with swollen feet)

Tonight, I'm sleeping with my feet up (above my heart) on a wedge pillow in the hopes that I can actually do some basic walking in the driveway tomorrow without wanting to cut my feet off.

I was feeling really bad tonight, and then took a shower and suddenly I feel like the steroids actually started to help some of the symptoms. I'm tired and still numb and my back still hurts in the numbest area, but suddenly the worst symptom I've got going on right now is swollen toes/ankles/feet. (oh, and my left hand is swollen, but I pretty much knitted an entire scarf tonight, so that might explain the swollen left hand)

Maybe things will un-numb themselves in a few weeks and I'll feel like going to the gym and hopefully swimming! (or at least walking in the water)
