1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 day of PT. I’m doing a lot more circuit work for stabilization and cardio right now.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill, recumbent bike, and floor exercises.
  • I saw Dr. Winkler, one of my OMM docs on Thursday.. She worked on releasing my diaphragm. It’s been getting stuck lately…
  • Rough nap week. Hopefully I will get back on track next week so I am not a zombie at night.

Vacation week is over…: ( Trying not to be too sad…we made some pretty incredible memories.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • Not much going on, on the medical front this week. No docs, no PT, and I pretty much failed on home rehab while I was away. Sigh. Back at it TODAY. NO excuses.
  • Still waiting for my Domperidone. It is coming from England, to Canada, and then to me. Hopefully any day now…

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 3 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I take Domperidone for Gastroparesis. I called this week to fill my prescription at the compound pharmacy I use, and was told the US can no longer make it. SO weird. So, after many calls to U of M and the Canadian Pharmacy, it is now coming from England, then to Canada, and then to me. I should have it by the end of August. In the meantime, if I look pregnant, I am not. Just for the record.
