Well.....the poison ivy is just about all gone.
Man, I'm sure glad I can start getting off of that Prednasone. That stuff really messed me up last night. I was down at the lake with some friends...I was out in the sun, and probably not drinking enough water. Later that night, it felt like I was having an anxiety attack. I was extremely nervous about everything....I couldn't concentrate on anything, not even driving. I had a friend drive me home it was so bad. It was like I had tunnel vision...all I could concerntrate on was what was directly in front of me.. It was one of the worst feelings I've ever had in my life. After I ate dinner and drank about 6 glasses of water....it finally started to go away after about 4 hours. My friends thought I was going crazy...I would keep checking my pockets making sure I had my cell phone and wallet (sometimes several times in 5 minutes).....they would ask me a quesiton, and about half way though my answer I would almost forget what I started talking about just minteus before. Conversations really didn't make much sense to me at all. It was a horrible experiance.
I talked to my mother who is an RN and she said that those steroids can have some weird affects on people. She said the combination of all the sun, the prednazone, and lack of water probably did it. I'm on my last does this week......I should be all done with that stuff in a few days.
Man...that stuff is crazy! I never want to feel like that again!!
