Whew! What a week! If I’m being honest, I do not think I’ve been this happy to see a Friday in a long time. I don’t think I’ve had this many tears in a long time.

BUT, if I were to find a positive in all of it, it is that I made it. And I’m smiling, and the sun is out, and I have two legs, and my family and friends are the best, and I have a job that I love, and I have medical insurance, and, and, and…Perspective, my friends. Sometimes I forget.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Lots of cranial work. Lots.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• My echo-cardiogram was normal! Thankful!
• My glasses saga continues. I took my glasses back to the eye doc. Long story short, they are getting made for a third time.
•  I saw my shrink on Thursday. Fabulous timing.
• A week of POTSy insomnia.  I keep repeating my mantra; it will pass…it WILL pass.
• Day 9 of my left eye twitching. I told my Mom I think it’s Ebola. She laughed at me.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. I was HURTING. I may or may not have cried some. My neck and ribs were really out of whack so my therapist spent the time doing gentle manipulations to try and get them back into place. She also used kinesio tape to tape my neck to take some of the strain off of it.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. It was a “wear my neck brace while on the treadmill” week. Like I said last week, I think it is time for more prolotherapy.
• I had my echo that Dr. Grubb ordered a month ago. He likes to have EDS patients checked every two years, mainly for mitral valve prolapse. So far, no news. I figure no news is good news.
