I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN WITH BEING PARALYZED WITH THE PAIN ACROSS MY SHOULDERS AND HIP GIRDLE, I COULD NOT MOVE OUT OF BED BUT WHEN THEY PUT ME ON THE PRED THE PAIN LEFT. THANK GOODNESS I HAVE HAD NONE SINCE THAT TIME BUT PROBABLY WILL SINCE I AM IN THE TAPER DOWN STAGE NOW. WITH ALL THE CRAZY STUFF THAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD IT IS WHAT IT IS SO I WILL DEAL WITH IT! I JUST WANT TO GET MY SENSE OF SMELL AND TASTE BACK NOW SO I CAN ENJOY MY FOOD!!
