Deathly meds.

[MEZZ1]

From a cold to another chest infection back on antibiotics.And steroids only managed to take 4of these yesterday. Every time I've taken steroids I wake up in a pool of sweat, and my head is so bad it feels like it's bouncing from one wall to another. But this morning I felt like I was climbing the God dam walls. So I had to get up ,I came downstairs and started washing my cat food bowls out, so I could concentrate on something. So no more steroids are coming my way . I'm not climbing no mental health walls for any doctor.

They do make you a little bonkers. I remember years ago I was on a prednisone burst and wrote my boss an email and when I printed it later it was like 2 single spaced full pages (!) And sometimes it makes me crazily emotional but unfortunately it's the only thing that stops bad attacks for me. I've seen people on here call it 'devil's candy' which I think is pretty perfect-

If you can cope without the steroids, that is excellent! If it's a choice between one agony or another, then you must get an urgent appointment with the GP to discuss an alternative treatment. Don't suffer unnecessarily.

Thanks trying to sort that out .being struggling with antibiotics as well, the older I get the worse I am at taking medication . Don't know why pharmaceutical companies can't use their brains to make medications , that don't cause such serious health problems. Mezz1
