What is life without a slight glitch on occasion?

Yep and that is what is definitely happening now.
I did receive my medication, the three vials/spheres of 1000 mg. of Solu Medrol to be inserted into my IV over the next three days, it came to our home at about four P.M., and yes that is what I said, and starting tomorrow I was told that an RN would be here installing it in my arm/hand for disbursement throughout my bodily system and that he/she would be calling today to make that arrangement.
Waiting still, for that call and it must be after hours since many places close and it's already six P.M here.

If I didn't feel bad enough to need this stuff it wouldn't be a problem, ya know, but then this all would be a moot point anyway.

I must decompress and try hard to not stress anymore than I am already. Sleep has been consistently restless...my head hurts and I continually seem to get some relief from ice packs applied to my noggin in different locations and caffeine, imbibed via a coffee cups worth full, at night.

 Right now I am in my cool place, in bed with our ceiling paddle fan aiding in my comfort along with the central air-conditioner, but lately it has gotten hotter outside causing it to have to work harder, yep, low dry nineties causing heat indices over one hundred and ten degrees Fahrenheit! 

My Copaxone came today, my monthly supply, and when we are getting deliveries we cannot hear them while lounging in the pool, or working out in the backyard, but since I have had my eyes and ears problems getting chlorinated water in them doesn't help anyway. Even though I do use ear plugs, I have a nose plug, but don't use it anymore, it hurt, and my sinus issue causes another problem as well...I should try and find my goggles that I used to use for snorkeling to protect my eyes when I  eventually do go back into the pool,but can't with the IV in me, which stays for all three days. What a boring mess, SORRY!
That's why I would have gone today in the pool though, I really need it, no rain and all, but had to wait for the deliveries and calls...oh well.
I feel crappy anyway, excuse my cringe-worthy comment.
My left ear also has a whooshing noise sporadically that I did ask the ENT, ear, nose and throat doctor about, Dr. Moss, he said I probably lost some hearing in that ear.   
All these problems besides my optic neuritis and burning twisting right leg sensation should be made better by this dosing of this high-test medication of the three days 1000 mg. each day of Solu Medrol; problem is you're damned if you do and damned if you don't, ya know?

I am looking forward to feeling better!  
Too much TMI, talk to you later.
Wait till you see what those heavy doses of steroids does to my voice here, motormouth galore! Ha!
