Krista,...I know it sucks....but you can do it! It has only been yesterday when we have all been right there where you are. Someday...SOON...you will look back and it will all be a nice ride downhill and all those nasty side effects will be blown away in dust!
Hang in there, just do what you need to do, and very soon you will be looking back like we are and saying "I DID IT! WAS TOUGH, BUT I DID IT AND I'M GLAD CHOSE TO DO IT! CASE CLOSED!!!!"
Hugs....
Maryanne
