1. Medical Stuff:

• Back at it in PT. I spoke too soon last week. My ribs have decided to give me fits.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. AKA three miles in the neighborhood and strengthening exercises in my living room.
• Weekly acupuncture and infusion. Sometimes managing my health seems like really hard work. This was on of those weeks.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Session of Acupuncture. I love my doc. Still convinced she is some kind of magical wizard. And I was a skeptic…especially because I did it before in 2010 and HATED it.
• My first home infusion was a success. I had a nurse friend come over and start my IV. Talk about creativity. The bag of meds was connected to a wire hanger, which we hung from our kitchen ceiling fan. Worked like a charm.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab. I kicked my a$$ all three times this week. Felt good.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of Home Rehab. We have a working treadmill! I hear about so many peeps who hate treadmills, but I love that thing with my whole EDS heart.
• 1 Day of PT. My left first rib is so messed up, I could barely exercise. Gah. My PT tried his best to work it back into place, and we did stim and heat, but I am wearing my collar as we speak, to try to get it to continue to calm down. My ribs and me. A constant battle. That shall be my book title one day.
• I had my first acupuncture appointment with Dr. Tan. I fell asleep! I think that is a good sign…I’m going back Thursday, and am going to try weekly for a while.

1. Medical Stuff:

• NO PT because of parent-teacher conferences. I have learned that trying to do both do not mix.
• Only one day of home rehab. :/
• One women parts doctor appointment.

Whew! I am late…But you know what they say…better late than never ; )

1. Medical Stuff:

• I haven’t been this “normal person” sick in a long time. NO voice, cough, hard to breathe, back on breathing treatments. It kicked my butt last week! But I am glad to say I am almost back to just my weird issues now! I will say teaching Kindergarten with zero voice is interesting…to say the least.
• One day of PT. They went easier on me since I sounded like I was a smoker for 50 years. Probably a good thing.
• One Day of home rehab. I am SO ready to get our new treadmill delivered (after our old one croaked). I miss it!
• One shrink appointment = 768757575784785 breaths of fresh air. We talked about healing. A Lot.
• I saw my primary care doc and found out I need to get a benign cyst removed from the top of my head on the first day of my spring break. Fun times.
