Five For Friday 3/2/18

Written by Katie. Posted in Five For Friday

Whew! I am late…But you know what they say…better late than never ; )

1. Medical Stuff:

  • I haven’t been this “normal person” sick in a long time. NO voice, cough, hard to breathe, back on breathing treatments. It kicked my butt last week! But I am glad to say I am almost back to just my weird issues now! I will say teaching Kindergarten with zero voice is interesting…to say the least.
  • One day of PT. They went easier on me since I sounded like I was a smoker for 50 years. Probably a good thing.
  • One Day of home rehab. I am SO ready to get our new treadmill delivered (after our old one croaked). I miss it!
  • One shrink appointment = 768757575784785 breaths of fresh air. We talked about healing. A Lot.
  • I saw my primary care doc and found out I need to get a benign cyst removed from the top of my head on the first day of my spring break. Fun times.

I stayed home from school yesterday…to rest. My body has been telling me in more ways than one that it needed some recovery time…and I listened. Maybe I am getting a bit wiser in my older age : )

1. Medical Stuff:

  • I saw my Pulmonologist on Monday. I love when I hear the word “normal” from a doctor. My breathing tests were all NORMAL.
  • I saw Larry on Tuesday for more OMM; ribs, cranial, and TMJ.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I got my glasses back for the third time. It’s true! The third time IS the charm! They do not make me sick. Yesssss.
  • Going on my third straight week of my left eye twitching. I’m trying not to worry. But I’m Katie…I’ve named it Henry. I hope Henry goes away really, really soon.
