1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Had a breakdown since my ribs felt like they were on fire. My therapist did tons of gentle OMM, and it helped quite a bit. I left moving and breathing better.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• My gastroparesis is still flaring. Time to cut out certain foods until it calms down.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Graston’s Therapy on my hip, quad, and IT band, plus the usual strengthening.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• Gastroparesis flare. Back on Domperidone until it calms down.
• 1 shrink appointment. I accidentally scheduled a half hour instead of an hour. What I learned? I need that hour…: )

1. Medical Stuff:

• No PT. All rehab was on my own this week.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab.
• No doctor’s appointments either. It is a very rare week for me when I have zero therapy or doctor appointments!

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of HARD PT. Bill likes the tough love when it comes to strengthening. I’m not complaining…
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I saw Larry on Tuesday. We discussed my unintentional weight loss, and that it’s time to call Dr. Grubb and see if it’s a) because of POTS and b) if so, if I need a Beta Blocker med adjustment. Larry also did his usual (magical) OMM on my ribs, upper back and neck.

1. Medical Stuff:

• I was on my own this week for PT. I actually got to get outside and do some walking for my cardio. I am so ready for this warmer weather…
• 3 Days of Home Rehab: cardio, balance work, scap and glute fires, leg strengthening, core strengthening, and light weights for arm exercises.
• I ended up at Urgent Care Sunday night with a skin reaction. Basically my face blew up, so they gave me a shot of Steroids, oral steroids, and an antibiotic. The cause? Who knows, but it is suspected that EDS contributed since I have the type of EDS that affects skin (Type 2/3).
