1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of Home Rehab.
  • Lots of DC walking. Does that count as rehab? : ) I have a feeling my therapists would say no…
  • No PT or doctors since I was gone.
  • It was an insomnia week. Hoping to get my sleep back on track ASAP.

Five For Friday 7/11/14

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 3 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I had my July appointment with Larry. Lots of cranial, neck, and upper back OMM.
  • Tuesday I went to U of M for my yearly Gastroparesis check up. I was given an EKG because I am on Domperidone, and everything looked good. My doc wants me to have the Hydrogen Breath Test (because of my flares) which is to check to make sure I have the good kind of bacteria in my stomach. I am also to return in six months for a check up and a meeting with their nutritionist.

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of PT. Graston’s Therapy on my hip, quad, and IT band, plus the usual strengthening.
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • Gastroparesis flare. Back on Domperidone until it calms down.
  • 1 shrink appointment. I accidentally scheduled a half hour instead of an hour. What I learned? I need that hour…: )

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of HARD PT. Bill likes the tough love when it comes to strengthening. I’m not complaining…
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • I saw Larry on Tuesday. We discussed my unintentional weight loss, and that it’s time to call Dr. Grubb and see if it’s a) because of POTS and b) if so, if I need a Beta Blocker med adjustment. Larry also did his usual (magical) OMM on my ribs, upper back and neck.
