Rambling Roids...

   
Roids Day 2
Current mood:Not sure actually
Category: Life
Back when I talked to the fiscal death torturers ( a neurologist and the people running the MRI) , I got a roids prescription. Not intravenous, which is the best drug ever. I was in hospital years ago, couldn't feel my legs, arms, brain. They jacked in some intravenous steroids and within an hour I was dancing (badly) , laughing, grinning ( which lasted 5 days), and generally quite a happy chap. I don't recommend the come down, which lasts a month and makes you feel like a living bottle of alka-seltzer, but previous to that, happy days.
Now on my second 2 day shot of roid pills. They are nowhere near as much fun, just make you feel a bit odd. Having done the first course i realize the come down is nowhere near as bad, though the journey is nowhere near as interesting. I mean this time out I have no chance of ending up on the Back to the Future ride in LA with an open IV on my arm. Again don't recommend it, though it will be one of the trippiest things you ever do.
MS does make life shitty, but it is exceptionally trippy. I have seen and felt things that make no sense unless you are in a happy horror film. If you every get the chance sit around a group of people with MS telling the truth. You will never hear it otherwise as the other 99% of the time we lie. We lie because we have all made the mistake at some point of answering the question " What's its really like?"  brutally honestly, then watched the fall of the face that asked it. I love the MS yoga class I do because I am surrounded by people who cannot be shocked and some times come up with crazy shit I had never even thought about. It feels like someone putting a needle in your eye? For a month? Wow. Turns out buggered right leg probably not so bad.
This post is a mildly meandering load of old toss., I think steroids in pill form have their own dislocation effect. Ooh.
