THREE WEEKS?! That is a record. I’m slacking…but that also means I’m living life, soaking every bit of summer, and trying to be present for all of it!

1. Medical Stuff:

• Like 6 PT sessions. 8 Home Rehab sessions. One shrink session. Lots of OMT.
• Prolotherapy in Indiana. I’m gonna keep attacking the hip until it decides to cooperate. Back again in 6 weeks.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One day of PT. Sciatic, sciatic, sciatic…Frustrated.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab: Treadmill, weights, and lots of toe rises and squats.
• Quiet doctor week.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One day of PT. My hip/back pain has evolved from feeling like EDS pain to an injury pain. We are continuing to work on it with exercises, stim, heat, and OMT. To say I feel frustrated would be putting it mildly. Breathing.
• I saw my shrink on Monday. Trying to make more time for these appointments. They are so, so important for my overall health.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One day of PT. Because this lower back/hip stuff thinks it can stick around, it was time to get fitted for a soft brace. I need the stability and I finally gave in. Hopefully it will be temporary until I can get stronger and then throw it an drawer. In the meantime, I have a big, black soft brace holding my tummy in. I guess that’s not terrible.

1. Medical Stuff:

• Two sessions of PT. Still trying to get my lower back stronger and the pain under control. Labor did a number.
• Lots of walking in the neighborhood with my home-dawggggg, Gru Gru. I keep trying to add more strengthening and stretching at home but I have not been super successful. It’s a new week!
