My pain still hits when I wake up, but I think today will be the first where I can get away without even ibuprofen. The rash is less again. I think I'm going to wait another week to resume yoga class, but today I'll do a bit of gentle stretching and even try the exercise bike for a few minutes.
The most annoying thing was that I got a bill for $85 over my $30 visit fee, from the ENT who prescribed the Prednisone (that allowed me to get this in the first place)!
