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.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! I am celebrating by pretending my Miralax/Gatorade mixture is a Margarita! Oh, EDS, you are so fun sometimes!

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT. The usual.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. The usual.
• Still navigating our new insurance. It feels like a full time job at times. Ugh.
• I saw my OMT doc. My ribs and head needed much love. Our goal was to get me headache free before I left. I did feel better so I took that as a win.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Core circuit, cardio, and OMT!
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Interval training.
• I saw my shrink on Thursday. We adjusted my meds, and I talked. A lot. It is so crazy; I have been seeing my doc now for 18 years. More than half my life. And not ashamed one little bit. Proud, actually to be focusing on my mental health too.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Interval training again.
• No docs.
• I got my echo results back and everything looks good. This is one time that I love the word, “normal.” I am set for another two years…woohoo!
