1. Medical Stuff:

• I saw my shrink on Tuesday. Growth. Breathing. Perspective. GROWTH.
• I had my pre-op at my ENT for my nose surgery coming up next Wednesday. I also had labs drawn for it, and the over-the-phone pre-op with one of the surgical nurses. I’m pretty sure this will NOT be the highlight of my summer. Let’s just get this over with, shall we?
• 1 Day of PT. Back at it after recovering from NYC! 4 cardio miles, lots of strengthening in a core circuit, stim, heat, and OMT.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One Day of PT. No exercise. Just OMT and LOTS of heat and stim to get me travel ready because of my angry, spasming ribs.
• One MASSAGE to calm down my angry, spasming ribs.
• One appointment with my OMT doc to work on my angry, spasming ribs. Are you seeing a pattern, here?

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. It was after field day so I had been running around in the sun for three hours. I had to suck up my pride and admit that it was probably best if we did heat, stim, and OMT only. That’s really hard to do sometimes.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab.
• No doctors. I am trying to keep my schedule clear these last weeks of school, because I have learned from other years how hard the end of the year is on my body. Maybe I do get a teeny-tiny bit smarter with age…it’s all about pacing… ; )

Holy MOLY, this was a crazy week. But I’m still standing…Barely.

1. Medical Stuff:

• Not proud of this, but this was one of those weeks where I had so much other stuff going on that I had to cancel PT and miss one day of Home Rehab just to survive/nap/rest instead. Blah.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab. Lots of cardio and scap strengthening.
• I saw my shrink on Thursday. It is always the days I think I don’t need him, when I realize I need him the most.
• I am sleeping like crap. Too much going on.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One Day of PT. My thoracic was super locked up. We don’t usually crack me, but that day was an exception.
• No Home Rehab. This is not an excuse; there is never an excuse, but my week was insane and I didn’t get it in.
• No doctors. Just a lot of everything else!
