Moving right a long.
Monday. I woke up with what I think was pretty good sensation in my right foot. The sensation of rubber bands stuck around my toes seems to be decreased. BUT I am also really analyzing each sensation for possible recovery. My body is still sore from Saturday’s excitement. In addition, I seem to have a …
Fatigue
Whew. I have been experiencing some fatigue. I think it is related to the DARK dark, and the added workouts. I feel a lot better, more balanced, and put together. In other words, I’m able now to THINK about the fact that my house is a bit of a wreck, I should wear more makeup …
improvement…
So… I’m continuing to improve. Actually I have not noted much improvement since the weekend, but I am not getting worse. I’m at a bit of a standstill. When I take Motrin, I really feel pretty pain free. At some point, I always forget that I took motrin, and think..Ooooh, I can run again. Then …
Saturday….
Saturday… Despite the Drama of Friday…Saturday was a pretty good day. I continued my taper of the Neurontin. I’m at about half the dose, I can tell because my foot and calf are somewhat tingly and that’s unpleasant, but it does tell me that there is still a problem, which is important. I took the …
Thursday fun
Well. To jazz up this post I’d love to post a photo of the new beautiful daughter of my Coach. She is PERFECT. I am not biased. All that said, it’s not really the thing to do, she’s not my kid after all. She is making me smile a lot though. I’m still going through …
Fingers Crossed
I am unsure but…I believe I am seeing some improvement in my symptoms for real. I am noting that gradually over the weekend and yesterday and this morning that I am moving a little bit more intuitively and naturally. I still have a lot of Nerve symptoms. My right calf burns rather all the time. …

Today was a great day. Firstly Coach and his wife had their beautiful baby! Last night, I got an email that appears to have been sent pretty quickly after the grand event. I felt pretty special. I seriously felt like I was the “special auntie”….. Which I tried really hard to keep in check, because …
Hump Day & Thursday
The wise men rode camels, so hump day in the first week of Advent is totally acceptable. I was ok today. having a bit of frustration about essentially being used by my old job. I am super annoyed that I am still essentially contracted to be doing their work, and having to go back and …
monday monday
I woke up for work today feeling HORRIFIC. My head hurt, my leg hurt, my back hurt. I don’t think there was anything on me that didn’t hurt. I walked the dog, mailing some Christmas cards… I then headed off to work grumpily. As I’ve said, adjusting to the new job has not been that …
Oh my….
What an unusual day. I got up…felt pretty OK… And by OK, I was able to walk the dog, deal with his output…and get back to the couch position. I tend to be pretty optimistic, so I was like, OK, gonna be a good day. By 10 am, I was really bored with Facebook, Daily …
