1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Gentle neck manipulations and a LOT of cardio. I also started on the weight machines this week.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. I rocked my cardio old school to Bell Biv Devoe. No judging.
• Sunday, I decided it would be a good idea to run up my parent’s driveway and into their house from my car. However, my body had another idea when I slipped on a patch of ice and landed on my face. Incredibly, I only broke my pinky and scraped my knee. It happened so fast, I have no clue how I managed that, but I all I know is that it could have been MUCH worse.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Neck flare, but electrical stim and heat took the edge off.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab. Treadmill & strengthening exercises.
• I saw Larry on Tuesday. I had stomach acupuncture while he did gentle manipulations on my first rib up to my C1. He put in the leave in acupuncture needles in my belly. Last time, they lasted exactly one week. We will see this time…
• I saw Dr. Rosen after my Larry appointment. It seriously is the best combination of doctor appointments…I work on my body, and then go work on my mind. Ahhhhh. I am so grateful for both of them in my life. Cannot say it enough.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT. I’m doing a lot more circuit work for stabilization and cardio right now.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill, recumbent bike, and floor exercises.
• I saw Dr. Winkler, one of my OMM docs on Thursday.. She worked on releasing my diaphragm. It’s been getting stuck lately…
• Rough nap week. Hopefully I will get back on track next week so I am not a zombie at night.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I had my monthly appointment with Larry. I went in to my appointment in tears. I knew I had to get through parent-teacher conferences and I was feeling a mix of sickness and pain. I believe my words to Larry were, “Whatever magic you can do, please do it on me today.”And he did. Between stomach acupuncture, cranial OMM, and putting my ribs back in place, I was in much better shape leaving his office than coming.  Thankful.
• A lot of neck and head pain this week. I had to wear my neck collar to get through my  home rehab work, but the important thing is I did it.

Well, I am another year older!

1. Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill and recumbent bike, with some light weights and strengthening exercises thrown in!
• My PT was out of town this week…
• No doctors either. Pretty quiet week. I like those : )
• I scheduled my next Dr. Grubb appointment. I was supposed to see him in November, but I could not get in until mid-January. Actually, that’s not bad for him.
• My body has decided this week it does not need naps. I disagree. A lot.
