I'M ON STEROIDS!!!!!

:mad: :crazy: :silly: :argh: :freak: :grr: :banghead:

Prednisone to be exact.

On Monday my sinuses flat out locked up. I didn't have a temperature but I was worried about a cold coming on this week right before the marathon. So I went to the doctor yesterday and this awesome Doc prescribed prednisone and man is it working. Totally cleared me out (along with Loratidine and nasal spray) AND my knee that has been hurting for the last few weeks is feeling great.

One of my buddies commented yesterday "for the rest of your life whenever someone praises you for running a marathon* you will have this deep dark secret that will BURN INTO YOUR SOUL!! You are a DOPER!!!"

:rofl: he was just kidding of course.

*-haven't run it yet. About 72 hours from now I *should* be done.

Oh and go right ahead and copycat away.

Asthma.

as I went to check the spelling I realized I need to dose.

Yaaay!

If not, watch out for your blood sugar levels. Prednisone can raise them.

And, good luck in the marathon!!! Is it anywhere I know?

I may walk up to the front and take a look at the guys up there....that will be the last I see of them.

I am going to go all the way into the back and that way I get to experience (hopefully) passing someone.

I would describe my running style/gait as "Bigfoot late for the bus"

It's too bad that stuff makes you so hungary you'd eat a shoe if someone cooked it right.

I chose blue as my color for this race

:patriot:

Prednisone is a mineralocorticosteroid, not an anabolic steroid. No big muscles for you buddy.

IT'S the STEROIDS!!!!

:P :evilgrin:

HATED IT!

Sleep is never a problem for me.

Since steroid use didn't stop whats-his-name.

Glad you're feeling better.

I'd set you up if I had some.
