2-Lemon Custard Ice Creams

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 2 days of Home Rehab.
• 1 Day of Physical Therapy.  I had my first day back after two months off.  Basically this appointment was focused on setting goals.  One goal that my PT and I made together is to be able to stand in place for a longer amount of time.  Standing in place for more than a couple minutes is one of the hardest things for me to do.
• I had quite the POTSy week.  Maybe I am trying to do too much?  That’s what my body seems to be telling me.

1.  Medical Stuff:

• I had my follow up POTS appointment with Dr. Grubb in Toledo.  I need a chunk of time (as well as some time to really process the info and my emotions) to post about the appointment.  I will get to it as soon as I can find a good amount of time + a good amount of energy.
• 1 Day of PT
• 2 Days of Home Rehab
• I’ve needed a new neck this week!  Anyone have one they want to give me?

I’ve been soaking up every bit of family time since we had Andy’s Army going away party on Friday. Since I have been low on sleep with all of the excitement, my down time has been spent resting, recovering, and replenishing my spoons…Needless to say blogging has gone by the wayside this weekend, but I should be able to get back on track since prolotherapy round 2 is tomorrow and I will be laying low for the next few days.

• 2 days of PT.
• The PT student did her In-service on EDS and I went to answer questions and educate the therapists from a patient’s perspective.  I will definitely be blogging more about this.
• 2 days of Home Rehab.

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 3 sessions of PT-2 strengthening and 1 soft tissue
• 2 days of home rehab
• Used my topical pain cream for the first time.  It did help take some of my back and neck pain away.  I love that it’s not another pill I have to take.
• Had the Rest and Recovery Talk.
• Had an hour session with Dr. Rosen.  He definitely helps me get my head on straight.
