1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. My PT has a new student working with her for the next ten weeks so I did a lot of explaining about everything that is EDS and POTS.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I slept better all week. Dear Sleep Gods, please let it continue.
• I have noticed that this extreme cold we are experiencing has been wreaking some havoc on my joints and circulation. Spring can come anytime…I’d even take 15 degrees at this point.

What. A. Week.

Not in a bad sense whatsoever…It was just a bit crazy at times, extremely busy, and quite magical.

1. Medical Stuff:

• No PT.
• 2 workouts at the Michigan Athletic Club (My teaching partner gave me a 7 day “friends and family” pass so Allie and I lived it up at the MAC on Monday and Tuesday).
• No doctors (2 weeks in a row. That must be some kind of RECORD).
• I have started sleeping again (Knock on wood). Crazy how a break can help with that.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT. I spent my cardio time on the alter-G (anti-gravity treadmill). I was really proud of myself because I finally learned how to work it all by myself. That is some machine.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Regular treadmill work with high inclines, floor exercises, light weights, balance work, and light stretching.
• 1 Gynecologist appointment. That’s always a fun time, right ladies?

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. We worked my core a lot more because of the recent troubles with my ribs subluxing.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Again, with an extra emphasis on my core, plus cardio, weights, and floor exercises.
• Zero doctor’s appointments.
• Insomnia. Enough said. You all know how I feel about that.

1. Medical Stuff:

• No PT appointments because of parent-teacher conference nights. I was on my own this week.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab.
• My ribs were much more cooperative this week. I didn’t have to resort to ace wrapping them into place to survive. Thank. God.
• I had an OMM appointment. My doctor commented on how “twitchy” my body felt as she worked on me. She explained that that is what it usually feels like when it is in a flare, which made sense to me since I have been flaring quite a bit lately. She made me promise I would get good rest and take time to recover this weekend.
