Wow, still in shock. Journey to acceptance.

Well my two days off are over.  I have a slight pain in my back but nothing like I usually have.  My foot and knee feel great and my depression seems to be getting a little better.  Fortwo days now I have gotten out of bed without the now usual feeling of dread.  I hope this is a good sign.  It may be because I got meds to take care of it , but whatever works at this point.  I was so tired I could barely get out of bed and get excited about anything.  I feel a little bit more like myself now, that is good.  I am waiting for the doc to look at the xrays and call me with any results.  I still think I have the ankilosis spondalitis(however that it spelled).  My symptoms seem to fit.  The prednisone seems to be helping me, but i worry about the side effects.  Gotta go now, work, yay.
