I see your donut!

haven't done it yet, but I'm thinking about it.

I just have to work out the logistics.

nothing splatters!

You just had to place in a visual food item!

I know not what I do!

Thems fighting images.

On guard!

Let's indulge:

Variety, it's the spice of life:

and calorie-free on your computer screen.

Speaking of computers, is yours fixed now?

I was having an issue a few days ago and it turned out to be my wireless mouse even after a battery replacement.


The mouse issue wasn't the problem in the beginning however, it was definitely infected with something.

It's such a pain when things don't work like they should.

Absolutely it's a pain when things don't work like they should.


Bah humbug!

I was wondering about it...

Love it!

What, pray tell, do they look like?

🫣

I'm proud of you too!

As long as you have the car windows closed you can curse as loud as you want to!

Is the Prednisone helping at all? I hope so!

I can walk and drive (barely).

There is residual dull pain in my back, but the bad pain has moved to the front of my right thigh...pelvic area.

This is leading me to believe that it's nerve pain.

I get this once or twice a year, and it always heals in this manner. Every episode gets progressively worse.

I had to beg for the Prednisone because of the diabetes. I can't stay on it for more than 5 days, because it shoots your glucose up and basically renders insulin shots useless.

If today's dosage does not knock this out completely, I'm probably in trouble.

Thank you for asking electric_blue68. I hope you are well!

Ah, yeah, I remember you mentioned the diabetes + Prednisone dilemma.

I guess there's something to be said for recognizing the cycle of this. Not good it gets worse. Sure hope these last pills do the trick.

I hope you can get to a neurologist? Or special pain management specialist. To try and head off, or really ease the next cycle. Obviously, unfortunately $$, availability etc plays their "parts". [insert "in a better USA..." mini-rant here]
Good Luck!

I'm mostly on the well side, a few concerns with fingers crossed for continued good, very good management.

Then 36 hours to get my glucose down, then a primary care visit Monday morning for bloodwork to see how bad one week of glucose in the 400s and 500s messed me up.

I've been to a neurologist, and it was a bad experience. He was trying to tell me I had an ocular migraine, when the MRI showed a lacunar stroke. I never went back to him.

I think this pain is from either nerve damage or degenerative disc disease.

i hear you about the $$!

Fingers crossed for your continued good health, electric_blue 68!

I hope your blood work will be, i guess, better than you are worried about, since there might be some effect.

So maybe either neve pain, or degenerate disc disease. I hope you can get some more advice from your GP. Good luck, again.

And thanks for your good wishes. 👍

Prednisone and the pillow and the pain …

your driving and mine are pretty similar …

I am so pleased that you didn’t honk … am not certain that I would have shown that much restraint
