Just a "zebra" trying my best to live life to the fullest with EDS and POTS...and loving the ride.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • I met with a new primary care doc, and I really liked her. This has been my missing link from my medical team for a while. I am optimistic she will be able to take over, AND she does OMM too. Bonus.
  • 1 Day of PT. Elliptical, bike, small weights, foam roller, and OMM!
  • 2 Days of Home rehab.
  • I went to Indiana on Wednesday for a TMJ follow up. My specialty mouthpiece was adjusted and I had PROLOTHERAPY from a doc other than Dr. Cantieri. That was a first. Dr. Klauer did my jaw, upper neck, and inside my mouth. I wasn’t even that sore.

Happy December, y’all! With the exception of summer, my favorite time of the year!

1. Medical Stuff:

  • Back to PT after THREE weeks! I felt every bite of Thanksgiving on that elliptical!
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • 1 OMM appointment for cranial work.
  • One yucky POTS flare.

  • No PT. Back at it next week.
  • I had an OMM appointment on Tuesday. We worked on my upper ribs, neck, and jaw. Grateful that I respond well to the soft tissue work and gentle manipulations.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • One emergency trip to the eye doc. Still trying to figure out what’s going on. We have ruled out that it is not just inflammation in my body since the steroid drops did not work. So everything is still pointing to an infection that will not go away. I am starting new antibiotic drops tonight. Lucky drops #4?! Let’s hope.
  • 1 cancelled PT appointment because I had to go to the eye doc instead. Sigh.
