Karen,
Thanks for a great post. It is empowering to think we could actually be doing something to make our treatment work better!
You are right about walking giving us purpose--and control. It makes us feel better about ourselves.

Thanks for the thoughts on the steroids. I will be discussing them with the doctor Friday.
