Pooh at the ER?

And so it goes.  Had an occasion to spend the night with pooh and friends..  yep you heard me right.  Had to make a trip to the Emergency Room.  It was a very long, scary and tiresome night... but made a little easier by the decor in the particular room where they put me.  All over the walls were different pictures of Pooh and his friends.  Not just pictures hung on the wall.  Not just posters either... these were murals painted in bright colors all around each wall.  I can see how it really might have helped a child who was scared and hurting.  It was so cheery. Took the focus off of myself and onto something else.. never a bad thing to do when one is in pain or anxious. 

Anyway,  the shortness of breath, the burning in my chest were just results (side effects) of the steroid injections I got in my spine on Tuesday.   They give a list of possible side effects when you get those shots.   I had them all, each and every one.. and they were each major.  I have had a whole week now since I got the two injections and I'm still not done with the side effects..  I really hope they will be worth it in the long run.   Was a lot to go through if no good results from them.  For now it's a wait and see ...
