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.

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT.  I was able to get back on the Reformer after doing my cardio on the Elliptical.  I find that I actually miss that “torture chamber” if I am away for it for more than a week.  I think I have kinda, sorta fallen in love with it.  It works my whole body; especially my core, while being kind to my joints.  Now I just need to figure out how to get in more Reformer sessions during the week.  (I never thought I would say that).

March!

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab.  Treadmill, light weights, exercises, glute fires, balance work, light stretching…the usual.
• I had an OMM appointment.  We worked on my hip, ribs, and my doctor did some cranial-sacral work (one of my loves).
• I had another prolotherapy treatment on Friday.  More to come on that.

Topic: What questions do you have for other patients?

One of the most important things for me is sharing with fellow zebras.  There is nothing like being able to talk to someone who is living a life similar to mine.  I’m sure many of you will understand what I mean when I say what an amazing feeling it is to meet someone who just “knows” what you are going through, because they are living it too.

• 1 Day of PT.  I have graduated to harder Pilates on the Reformer,
