Whew! March just got here, didn’t it?! What the heck.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. I worked out HARD. I love that feeling of dripping sweat.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Intervals again on the treadmill and floor strengthening.
• I had an OMT appointment and got 3 trigger point injections. I’m finding those injections are good for interrupting the pain cycle.

Short & sweet since I’m late, late, late…

1. Medical Stuff:

• Bad back week. Oof.
• No Home Rehab. I thought it was best to rest.
• 1 Day of PT. No exercise. Just OMT and stim and heat. Didn’t want to push it.
• 1 hour with my beloved shrink.

1. Medical Stuff:

• It was one of those EDS weeks where my body felt like with one wrong move, it would crumble…but I made it through with a lot of heating pad action.
• 1 Day of PT. I added some arm exercises and am wondering if it is flaring up my neck. Blah.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab. Treadmill intervals and strengthening.
• 1 needed OMM appointment. LOTS of cranial and rib work.
• It was back to Toledo on Thursday to see Dr. Grubb and (mostly Bev) or my 6 months POTS check up. It went well; pretty much a maintenance appointment for meds, hydration infusions, and an order for an echo. It was awesome to have Bev back after she had been out for a while with her own medical issues. AND I was seen in RECORD time. My appointment was at 1:30 and I was done by 3:00. That NEVER happens.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT. My feet keep going numb on the elliptical (sigh) so I am switching my cardio to a combination of biking and the treadmill. So far it’s much better.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Trying to incorporate more core. I need to get back on the Pilates reformer!
• 6 month dental cleaning. 35 and still no cavities!
• Good nap week. YESSSSS.

1. Medical Stuff:

• I finished my antibiotics! I finished my prednisone! And am feeling MUCH better! Thank. GOD.
• Back to PT. I did the elliptical and bike and a few light strengthening exercises to get my body back in the swing of things. I finished with heat, stim, and OMM.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab. I was so happy I made it on the treadmill for 30 minutes without losing a lung. I’m on my way back, friends!
