At this point it's difficult to tell whether I'm getting better or worse. I think on the whole things are improving, but never long enough to be sure. Tapering off of prednisone, I called the on-call doctor yesterday to talk some things through. I'll start using my nebulizer more frequently. Somehow I had the impression it was a bad idea to use the albuterol (for the nebulizer) with prednisone. She assures me I'm mistaken. So I'm using it about every four hours on a schedule. My breathing isn't as deep as I'd like, but it's a fairly easy breath. My breathing is a bit noisier than I would prefer. :-) People should feel free to ignore these emails. I think better out loud and since I use voice recognition some of this writing is me thinking out loud.

I should let folks know that I was off-line most of yesterday because of a technical glitch that has been resolved. Being sick with no Internet is not my idea of a good time! I hope everyone else is having a much better New Year. Thanks to all who are thinking about me. I know that I am not the best blogger/correspondent. I tend to "go silent" when I'm not feeling well. These posts are also an attempt at correcting that tendency.
