Hi

Sometimes the first couple ot times at a new doc, you feel kind of

awkward, I would give it a little time, and see if you feel better.

Hopefully, some of the swelling will go down with your meds. How do

you take the Methoprednisolone? I hope that you get some relief very

soon, Chris. So, your going to try an easier job? I would too, if

the job is too hard for you, there are plenty around. You just take

care of yourself, and let me know how your doing, take care Tawny

Lodine is an anitinflammatory drug. It is similar in nature to Voltaren. I

used to take this a long time ago and then felt it was working anymore.

Oh, okay. Thanks for the explanation! I took Voltaren years ago, and all I

got out of it was a nasty tummy-ache! Cary
