the little pink pill

i hate benadryl. the little pink pill that makes my head feel like a balloon and a brick at the same time. somehow it's hard for me to believe that this little Super Pill will prevent me from having any adverse reactions to my new crohn's treatment. especially when the warning/side effect chart that came with the injections looks like this:
8.16.07 303

8.16.07 302
did you see the line above in bold that says: Serious infections including TB have happened in patients receiving Humira. Some patients have died from these infections. great...

i decided to hang it up in the back entryway to see it in its full glory:
8.16.07 304

it's so ridiculous that i think i'm going to keep it up for a while. it's one of those things that you have to find the humor in...if it's not funny then it's just fucked up.

Hi, this is a bit random but I followed a link from wardrobe_remix to your blog because you're one of my favourite remixers and then I saw that you're on a drug I'm supposed to start in a week (assuming I get over the flu in time). Anyway, I really like your w_r photos (I just lurk) and I hope Humira works out for you (and for me too obviously).

Randomness from New Zealand,

wow. thanks esther. i kinda started this blog for my own amusement and it's pretty cool knowing people on the other side of the world are reading this...

anyways, so far humira is working fantastically for me. i wish you the best of luck with it too. please please please make sure that you are 100% healthy (no infections or fever) before you start taking it though...i've heard some horror stories from others...
