Better, thanks to prednisolone

 I got a little better on Tuesday, but spent the night waking up from pain several times, and then lying awake for two hours because I was in too much pain to sleep. And tramadol didn't help anymore. So on Wednesday mornign I called the GPs office and got an appointment. My sedimentation rate was really high, so obviously there was an infection, or other inflammatory activity. Since I can't take ibuprofen since I got a hole in my duodenum from them, and that wouldn't have been enough anyway he put me on prednisolone for nine days, and it seems to help. Still very weak, but not in much pain anymore. I even managed to take the tram downtown and get white cotton tape for my 1790s white musling gown and some more black embroidery floss for Valeria's embroidered shift.

Now I am going to attach the sleeves. Before it's too late to use the sewing machine.
