Holy Cow, it’s September. So long, summer. I love you.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of Home Rehab. No PT this week.
• First week back to school. Hence, not a lot of sleep. It was a tired one.
• I have learned the last few years that it is best to clear my schedule the first few weeks I’m back to school in order to function and adjust…as long as I still get some workouts in on my own.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT. My feet keep going numb on the elliptical (sigh) so I am switching my cardio to a combination of biking and the treadmill. So far it’s much better.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Trying to incorporate more core. I need to get back on the Pilates reformer!
• 6 month dental cleaning. 35 and still no cavities!
• Good nap week. YESSSSS.

What. A. Week. I have declared today a recovery day, where I move just enough so people know I’m alive.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. A lot of work on my thoracic. By the time I got to therapy on Thursday, my mid back was NOT happy with me.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab.
• I napped almost every day after school this week. So needed and always a cause for celebration.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of Home Rehab. Ugh. Not. Enough.
• Had to cancel PT on Tuesday because I was POTS-yyyyy and did not want to waste on of my sessions. Sigh. Hoping to get totally back on track this week. My body needs it.
• I saw my shrink for an hour on Thursday. That hour felt like two minutes. Oof.
• I had an OMM appointment on Friday. It had been a while because of various circumstances. Trying to figure out how to get more frequent visits in, since it is my main source of pain management.

1. Medical Stuff:

• I met with a new primary care doc, and I really liked her. This has been my missing link from my medical team for a while. I am optimistic she will be able to take over, AND she does OMM too. Bonus.
• 1 Day of PT. Elliptical, bike, small weights, foam roller, and OMM!
• 2 Days of Home rehab.
• I went to Indiana on Wednesday for a TMJ follow up. My specialty mouthpiece was adjusted and I had PROLOTHERAPY from a doc other than Dr. Cantieri. That was a first. Dr. Klauer did my jaw, upper neck, and inside my mouth. I wasn’t even that sore.
