I found this reassuring, by the way. I didn't know her hallucinations were triggered by the steroids. I've been dealing with frozen shoulder, and was afraid I'd need steroids--but one injection is not like taking oral steroids, even if I need one. So, back to the exercises...

Yow. I'm proud of her and her husband for getting through it. It's good that Lyme now has a "celebrity" voice.

They're calling themselves the Lyme Literati. Ginger jokes that I'm starting up the local Literati. (Too true--I know way too many writers with Lyme/CFIDS/Fibro...)

Hi, there--

I didn't get this in time. I was in Oklahoma until about 8 that night! How did it go? Are things starting to move?

I would be happy to help, but am aware that I am easily distracted and hyper-focused at the same time. So not sure where my best contribution will be. Rumor has it I go to 2x a week for shots next week. Hope it's an improvement--hands unhappy.

Making cinnamon walnuts is probably one place of contribution... ;^)
