Five For Friday 7/8/16

Written by Katie. Posted in Five For Friday

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of Home Rehab.
  • I saw Dr. Klauer at the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Center on Friday in Mishawaka to get my mouth appliance adjusted and loosened.
  • I finished Twistars camp on Thursday so I had Friday to allow my body to die. I barely moved all day, except to change my ice or heat. It was a MUCH needed recovery day.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of PT. More core stability exercises, and a lot of OMM on my gut to try and help with my lingering gastroparesis flare.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill and strengthening.
  • I resorted to eating smoothies, soup, yogurt, and more liquid-y fun foods this week since my gastroparesis decided to act up and stick around. I miss FOOD!
  • I saw Larry on Thursday. I had my first cupping experience and I’m not sure about it yet…It felt strange…I’d like to try it again on my back. We did it on my stomach while I had acupuncture needles in my legs…Larry worked on me afterwards and tried to get my thoracic area all put back together. My ribs and stomach are angry right now, but luckily he was able to give me a bit of relief.

Short and sweet…I’m still recovering from Allie and Gabe’s wedding : )

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 2 Days of Home Rehab. PT starts again in August.
  • Prolotherapy with Dr. Cantieri in Indiana. He attacked my ribs with the needle, and I was never happier to feel all of those pokes…

1. Medical Stuff:

  • No doctors. Lots of rest, ice, and heat for my back.
  • 1 Day of Home Rehab.
  • Taking a break from PT for the summer to see how I do. I better be able to start getting more home rehab in asap. We are experimenting.
