Happy May! Happy EDS Awareness Month!

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab with cardio done OUTSIDE with warmer temps and sunshine.
• I saw my shrink on Thursday. It had been a month. It was time.

I survived! The benefit came and went in a whirlwind, but it was an incredible night.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab.
• No doctors. Back to reality next week. Doctors and PT.

It’s no secret that I have been struggling with the ups and downs of POTS the last few months. More so than I have in a long time.

I’ve received a lot of questions, phone calls, emails, and concern from my amazing loved ones, so I thought it would be a good time to put a blog post out there. Plus, I miss writing.  It’s a wonderful way to communicate, help others understand, and to spread awareness which I believe in with all of my heart. Plus, it is simply a cathartic thing for me.

1. Medical Stuff:

• I had to cancel PT on Monday. I felt sick after school, and was worried about driving.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I saw my shrink on Tuesday. It was a needed appointment to talk meds, and figure out how to cope with this latest flare. Love him.
• I still had a week of struggling with POTS, and therefore sleep. I started a new med, and am really, really, REALLY looking forward to feeling like my body is somewhat cooperating with me again.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. So many therapy band walks. So many. My butt burnedddddd.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• Larry was back from China (Worlds for gymnastics) so I saw him in the office on Tuesday. My ribs were grateful. A bunch had subluxed, but I left the office moving so much better.
