First drip was done today (day 1 of 5). 3+ hour drip. They're already talking taper pack of prednisone after. I guess 3+ years of no IVSM to a 5 day infusion string requires a taper perhaps (or so my neurologist feels). Meh, I'll roll with it.

My boss and another manager visited today with short term disability forms for me (nice of them to bring those, saved me a trip) and tried my bread I'd baked. They really liked it. I told them I could bake and they were skeptical! Just because I dress like a pseudo hippie, listen to metal music, and play way too many videos games doesn't mean I can't bake!

4 more days to go.. I noticed some of the old sensory symptoms returning to me today. I guess I got to the IV drip and doc just in time.
