Well, sorry it has taken so long to give an update. Life has been pretty hectic.

As for my son, he is doing much better. He periodically runs a temp., but feels much better and has times where he is up and around - but bored being at home.

My doctor stated that I could be around him, if I am careful not to drink or eat after him and to keep my distance when he is running a temp.

My partner helps a lot and takes care of him when I have him. I am letting him stay at his mother's house a lot more than usual.

As for me, I got my first full night of sleep last night without any help from medication. I really am doing better. Dizziness is better and headaches are basically gone. My face is back to normal, except when I get real tired. I do get tired often, though. I have to watch myself and not over do it.

My doc thinks I am doing so well that he started tapering the Prednisone earlier than scheduled. I am down to 20mgs now for 5 days and then 10 for 5 days and then off.

AND, that is my only medication now. I have pain pills and sleeping pills if needed. I hate taking those, though, unless I am just really needing it.

Well, that is the update! Hope everyone on here is doing well too.
