I have a doctors appointment scheduled for June 1st (though the county).. and hopefully from there I can get to a specialist. In the mean time, I'll keep getting labs done through the school and seeing the doctor there. I do believe we're going to discuss tapering me off the Prednisone tomorrow. Oh my goodness, that would be amazing! I've started hallucinating at night.... JUST like fever dreams when I was younger... expect without the fever. So yeah.... it's time to be rid of this stupid drug!
On another happy note, I started my period! Heheheh. Would I have ever dreamed that I would say such a thing? Nay, I say..
It's interesting... For the first time I really feel how nice it is to bleed. Usually being on your period means cramps and a lot of mess and hassle for 4 or 5 days. But because I've been so upset about being on the Prednisone.. AND birth control... that I was just completely relieved to have something "normal" back in my life. And because I'm simply enjoying that normalcy without caring about the drawbacks of a menstrual cycle, I can feel for the first time how nice it is. It's so hard to explain... It's like a release of negative energy... an unloading of a burden... a sigh.
I take far too much for granted when it comes to my body. I will stand for that no more. :)
