I've taken oral steroids for asthma, and hallucinations are part of the package. Higher dosages act like truth serum - ask me anything and I'll spill my guts in a rather non-ulitave fashion. 2nd Ex once got me to name ever woman I'd ever slept with. yikes

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