So many health issues!
Betsi, I am so sorry Mike has to have surgery.
Janet, I agree with Gayle about the injections before having surgery. Can you ask your doctor to get you the injection before your consultation with the surgeon? Why should youi have to be in such pain until everyone decides what to do? He means well, but that is a week away, and then you have to set up an appointment for the injection. That is too long to wait for relief!
Linda, your poor hubby is also waiting for back surgery!
Gary sounds like he is behaving Gayle! Thank goodness for that! It just never ends!
I am praying for all!
I went to the gym for the first time today. I have a trainer, and she is really good! I was so tired afterwards though, that I came home and took a nap! I want to go 3 times/week. I can only afford the trainer once/week for 30 minutes, but that is fine. I hope I remember what to do. She put me on some machines, I used weights in 3 different ways, and then crunches on a pilates ball. She said I have to be very careful with any kind of crunches because of my neck. I liked that because a lot of people just tell you to be careful. She said there is no way to do any kind of crunches without straining the neck.
I enjoyed the exercise, and MUST force myself to get there 3x/week.
There is also a community center nearby that is offering all kinds of great activities. My friend took over runniing it, and everyone is happy with it. I haven't gotten myself over there yet. I need a boot hanging on the wall so that I can make it kick me to get out of the house!!!
