My hands have been numb before, but this is the worst it's been.

I can't take Neurontin or Lyrica because those both make my feet and ankles swell.

It's just bumming me out because my hobbies are crochet and knitting. I think that I've had five flares since last fall. I finished two projects in the past year. Getting on my last nerve (ha ha) that I can't do my favorite hobbies.

I'm also having problems with my feet. Having my hands get all screwed up. It's kind of the last straw. Like I've had a year-long series of exacerbations. Just tired.

I didn't hate side effects of steroids so much. I probably would've taken the neurologist up on the offer.
