1. Medical Stuff:

  • I had a better week. Especially with sleep, and therefore keeping symptoms at bay. Hoping this continues, and feeling grateful for better days.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I saw Larry on Tuesday. He put my ribs back into place and did cranial OMM on me.
  • I saw Dr. Rosen (shrink) after Larry on Tuesday. We discussed my recent med adjustments, and the best ways to cope through this flare. We came up a with a log I will be keeping for now, with information about each day (flares, no flares, where I am at in my cycle, medication info, how I feel, any differences to note, etc…)
  • I spent a lonnnnnggggg, but very worthwhile day in Toledo on Thursday seeing Dr. Grubb for POTS. I will try and blog about my appointment later.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 3 Days of Home Rehab. Loving the new treadmill!
  • I saw my shrink on Monday. Right now, I am seeing him every other week. It’s a good thing.
  • I had an eye appointment on Monday. I haven’t seen my eye doctor in a couple of years so I was due. It turns out I really am getting older and my eyes say so : ) I have to wear my reading glasses, “more than reading glasses now but not all of the time,” and my prescription is now a bit stronger. Sigh.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of PT. Lots of cardio, strengthening, and cranial. Revisited the conversation again about how much PT is best for me. I still don’t know if we have an answer. It’s been nearly 4 years, and I’m still learning.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • 1 OMM appointment for cranial, neck, and jaw.
