The holidays put me wayyy behind!

1. Medical Stuff:

• I had three weeks off of PT. THEN, I received a letter that my PT will no longer be covered because some doctor who I have never met read a few notes from my file and determined I can do a home program. Gah. GAH. GAHHHHHH. I am currently fighting this and have my medical team fighting along with me. I will update when I can on the outcome. Sidenote: There are not many things that get me this worked up than insurance issues. The system is so messed up.
• One shrink appointment. Getting my head on straight heading into 2020. Med management too.
• I did not do too well with home rehabbing over the holidays. I got in 3, maybe 4 sessions in the last few weeks.  Oof. Back on the wagon now.
• I’m probably forgetting something since it’s been three weeks but I’m too tired to get up and look. Anyone else just want a nap?

1. Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of PT.
• 2 Home Rehab workouts. Some with a baby as a weight. Some with a baby attached to me like a squid.

1. Medical Stuff:

• One day of PT. My hip/back pain has evolved from feeling like EDS pain to an injury pain. We are continuing to work on it with exercises, stim, heat, and OMT. To say I feel frustrated would be putting it mildly. Breathing.
• I saw my shrink on Monday. Trying to make more time for these appointments. They are so, so important for my overall health.

March! Made it to March! Woot! Woot!

1. Medical Stuff:

• Tuesday PT. First couple of ribs sucked. My PT did her best to work her magic. I’m still struggling with my lower back. It’s loose, yet locks up. That’s EDS for ya. Need prolotherapy stat.
• Had to reschedule my 6 week Postpartum visit for Monday. It’s coming fast!
• Snuck a few sets of strengthening in when Lucia slept this week. Definitely not enough, but it’s better than last week. Working on it. See below…

1. Medical Stuff:

• I made my return to PT after six weeks! My joints were a bit of a mess after labor and the break, so I was in desperate need of manual medicine.  I exercised for an hour as well…After the treadmill, I said to myself, “But did you die?” I did not, so I’d call the first day of my comeback a win ; )
• Now, how do I find time for the other days of home rehab? My next goal…
