Five For Friday 2/10/12

1.  Medical Stuff:

  • 3 Days of Home Rehab: Treadmill walking at an incline and strengthening.
  • I had my monthly check-up with Larry.
  • Today was my 11th (I think) prolotherapy appointment.  It was an eventful one full of hip, rib, neck, and scap injections, paired with a reaction to the numbing medication.  Fun times.

Whew!  I feel like I can finally breathe again.  The past two weeks have been the hardest, most demanding weeks I’ve had since returning to work. But I fought through it and survived.  And I am proud of that.

Vacation may now commence.

1.  Medical Stuff:

  • I had my December appointment with Larry.  He put four of my subluxed ribs back into place and did a lot of gentle neck manipulations.  He agreed that I may really benefit from regular cranio-cervical therapy and referred me to a doctor in Holt for weekly OMM.  December 22nd is my first appointment.  Fingers crossed.
  • I had two gyno appointments.
  • 1 Day of PT.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I scheduled my Dr. Grubb follow-up appointment for January in Toledo.  Now I just need to schedule my Dr. Lavallee, EDS follow-up for January too.

1.  Medical Stuff:

  • 3 Days of Home Rehab.
  • 1 Day of PT.  We worked a lot on trying to get my lower scaps to fire properly.
  • Round 7 of prolotherapy on my ribs, neck, and jaw.  Yes, jaw. I return in 6 weeks for round 8.
Not the most flattering picture, but you get the idea.
