Summer, please slow down! July?! How is that possible!

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 3 Days of Home Rehab.
  • My ribs still hate me. I need to get back in for more OMM.
  • When my ribs flare, my gastroparesis flares. Happens every time. If there is ever a research project done on us, sign me up.

  • This was a struggle week with my ribs and pain. I got into the doctor as an “emergency” on Friday because I was in so much pain from my ribs being subluxed. After a lot of manipulation, 4 trigger point injections, ear acupuncture, and having to do a colon cleanse because my gastroparesis had flared, it was decided it was best I rest for the weekend. This meant no Life as a Zebra Foundation, “Team Zebra” 5k the next day…I cried and then moved on into acceptance mode. I knew in my heart that this was an instance when I needed to listen to the docs who were trying to help me!

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of PT. Needed the tough love.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I saw Larry on Friday for my monthly appointment to touch base and for cranial and other manipulative medicine. If my joints could talk, they would thank Larry every single time.
