Just a "zebra" trying my best to live life to the fullest with EDS and POTS...and loving the ride.

Five For Friday 1/17/20, 1/24/20, 1/31/20, & 2/7/20

Written by Katie. Posted in Five For Friday

Four missed Fridays. I don’t even know where to start.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • PT. 4 sessions. All paid out of pocket. Because, yes, I am still fighting, and yes, my case is still under review.
  • Working my way through Morning Meltdown workouts. Almost finished with phase 1, which means I have about 80 workouts left.
  • Two infusions.
  • One shrink appointment.
  • I decided to get back into acupuncture. I’ve had three sessions so far and I LOVE IT…more-so than I did before. Puts me to sleep every time.
  • Three lab draws.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • One day of PT. Trying to turn up the intensity during my workouts now that my hip is finally cooperating (most of the time).
  • Two days of home rehab. I’m running more! Woohoo!
  • I’m back with my former primary care doctor and could not be happier. She gets me…all of me. So important. She also has EDS and POTS, so she knows the zebra life well.

Five For Friday 6/21/19

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of PT. Because of all of my sciatic pain, I will now be going twice a week. Fun, fun…as long as it helps.
  • 3 Home Rehab workouts. I got mad at my body so I pushed it hard. Makes sense, huh? Sometimes, I’m not the smartest but I wanted to show myself I could still work out hard. The struggle is real.
  • 1 Shrink appointment.
  • I made a prolo appointment. Time can go a little faster. I’m so ready.
