I traveled back to Mishawaka for more prolotherapy on Friday.  In the past I had gone no more than 8 weeks between treatments. This time it had been 11 weeks.  My body, especially my neck and jaw were telling me it was time, but I still felt pretty encouraged because I was doing better than I thought I would after 11 weeks.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill, light weights, glute & scap fires, & balance work.
• I had prolotherapy on my upper back, neck, and jaw on Friday. I will dedicate a blog post to that later (hopefully today).

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT.  Elliptical, mat exercises, and major jaw and neck OMM.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.  Treadmill, balance work, mat exercises, glute fires, light weights, scap fires.
• I had prolotherapy on Wednesday.  You can read about it here.

I had prolotherapy again on Wednesday.  This was intentional scheduling on my part.  I knew when I finished gymnastics camp, I would be one hurting zebra, so I figured having shots right after camp ended would be a good way to tune everything up, and help relieve some of the pain.

It was a very early morning complete with a few choice words when the alarm went off. 

Prolotherapy, round #Ihavelostcount.

Thursday marked nine weeks since I had my last prolotherapy injections.  That is the longest I have gone since I started, and I think it was a couple of weeks too long.  The two weeks leading up to my appointment, I was dealing with some major neck and shoulder pain…to the point that I was sleeping with my trusty rice heating pads again.  Needless to say, I was ready to get in the car and make our way to Dr. Cantieri’s office.
