Well, where am I, you may ask. It has been a while.
Push-ups: I still
seem to be stuck at being able to do 5, and that is with a lot of shaking. Some
things do not ever change.
DHEA: I have started DHEA again at 50 mg a day. This is a 25 mg tablet twice a day. Why? Well, I thought I would give it a try
since every eye doctor I have asked about it says DHEA had nothing to do with
my eye pressure spike of a few years ago.
I see that 50 mg is a suggested daily amount that may be beneficial for
aging types, which includes me. So far, I really have noticed a decrease of my
fine motor tremor since going to 50 mg a day. It does not seem to help much on shaking, as
noticed on almost anything I do requiring any strength.
Prednisone: There have been a couple of times since the last entry where
I have experienced pain in both scapulas, and some pain in my right hand. This was
noticed when I made a fist. I took a 10 mg prednisone a day for a few days, and
that stopped that.
Cause and effect or coincidence: I just note what appears to have helped me. Recognize that
it all may be coincidental that I notice DHEA helping tremor, since it is not
one of the probable benefits as listed in the literature of DHEA. Ditto that
for prednisone helping scapula and hand pain. Your mileage may vary.
