Back tracking....
Saturday was just absolutely gorgeous! Sunny.. slight breeze... and I had good energy the whole day. Sunday, however, was a different story. True, it was still beautiful outside, but I was beyond tired. I had to give a welcome speech to the incoming music students for next semester... which went over fabulously, if I do say so. Let's just say, Impromptu should be my middle name. But at any rate, I was exhausted afterward. I collapsed on my bed upon arriving home and slept for a few hours... then pulled myself into the kitchen to make some food. I was pretty much a zombie for the rest of the day; barely able to hold a knife to cut some chard for soup (which turned out fantastic. I took all the veggies that needed to be eaten, chopped them up, and threw them into a giant pot with some yam and corn.)
I went to bed early, and in my zomebiesque state, forgot to set my alarm. My cat didn't do her 'good morning' ritual like she normally does; which consists of parading across the blankets onto my chest, and sticking her nose in my face whilst purring as loudly as possible. So needless to say, I didn't get up until 8, making it pointless to even try getting to work.. missing an hour and a half of a two hour schedule doesn't exactly work.
That brings us up to speed to today, which just so happens to be Valentines Day! I used to hate this day in high school... all of us boyfriendless/girlfriendless ones would say "Happy Singles Awareness Day!" I'm over that. :) I'm too tired and sick to be bothered right now. It's a fun holiday anyway. My love will come someday... or at least... he better, the nincompoop!
Once I finally rolled myself out of bed, I popped in my Phosphorous. I'm not exactly sure how I feel right now.... still groggy, I think. It's hard for me sometimes, because I know how mental stress makes me tired.... But I guess either way, I should rest today.
You will experience a whole host of symptoms as you go through this journey. Do not despair. Very shortly you will begin to feel so much better. As the prednisone leaves your body you'll begin to feel a difference. As well, as the phos. begins to do it's job, you'll have good days and bad as your body detoxes and heals. Hang tight! Praying you many platelets!
