Round 3 and things are pretty much as before. Short, but productive sleep last night (5 hrs), no real headache (pre-dosed with the aspirin and codeine), the usual faint tx-week urpiness this morning (dosed with one anti-emetic), but a more than usual, day-after breakfast of prunes, cream of wheat and a muffin slathered with peanut butter--organic of course. Three of the 5 prednisones down, plus my usual meds and otc's. We'll see what that biological soup does.
AbJ's nurses (and, I assume, him: no face time yesterday) are on board with pain killers for the headaches, which they say are quite common. LorTab (oxcycodone or hydrocodone, I can't recall which, since one is Percocet) is on the horizon. I probably won't ingest any until the Canadjun pills don't work.
The pic (thanks to Lisa) is from Nov. 6 which makes it about a week old. Still retaining eyebrows, a wimpy 'stache and chin fuzz and that is sort of the overall description, too. I expect this third round will take care of these hangers-on.
