Pumped Up

My neck pain continues to be a real problem for me. Things were getting so bad that, in the middle of last week, both hands and even my feet were tingling or going numb. On Friday my doctor perscribed Prednisone - the most powerful oral steroid available. It is supposed to kill the pain and end the inflammation.

My regimen now consists of Vicodin, ibuprophen, and Prednisone. My neck is improving - no more numbness or tingling - but the pain is still there. What do all of these drugs mean? If my work wanted to do some drug testing on me, I would come up positive for narcotics and steroids. My hope is that on the other side of this I will look like this guy ...


Annie can't wait.

Doooood, you should have TOTALLY put your head on that body builders' body. That would've been the bizzle.
