Prolotherapy, round #Ihavelostcount.

Thursday marked nine weeks since I had my last prolotherapy injections.  That is the longest I have gone since I started, and I think it was a couple of weeks too long.  The two weeks leading up to my appointment, I was dealing with some major neck and shoulder pain…to the point that I was sleeping with my trusty rice heating pads again.  Needless to say, I was ready to get in the car and make our way to Dr. Cantieri’s office.

Happy May…which means Happy Ehlers-Danlos and Vasculitis Awareness Months!

1.  Medical Stuff:

• I traveled to Toledo, OH on Monday to see one of my POTS specialists, Dr. Bev.  More about that soon.
• I traveled to Mishawaka, IN on Thursday for prolotherapy injections. More to come on that too.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab.

It’s been eight weeks since the last round, so it was back to Indiana today for more prolotherapy.  Just recently I have had some upper rib/neck pain on my right side that has been waking me up at night, so I was eager to see what Dr. Cantieri thought, and if he would be able to treat it. 

Yesterday Brad and I took off for Mishawaka for another round of prolotherapy.  I was so exhausted, having gotten home from the Madonna concert at 3, and then getting up at 7 to leave. 

So, I thought about writing about my prolotherapy adventure yesterday, but I am pretty sure it would have gone something like this:
