So Monday I had an appointment with Dr. Stanton. He's kinda like Dr. Kuntz, just that he works with bones, not nerves or muscles. Anyway, he said my leg pain was because of my back. I have a slight bulge between 4 or 5? What does that mean? I know the pain is around the bootie, so it's there. Anyway again, he said that I have to do my PT stretches & exercise on the recumbent bike. I have to keep it up because if my leg gets worse, he said that he can give me a steroid at the point they give epidurals (it's called the same thing). The trick is that if I keep up with all the exercise, when I get the shot, it could work for good! No more pain! If I don't keep up the exercise, it will only work temporarily. So, far this week I have done gym once & stretches once. Tomorrow it's the gym. But first...
At 10am my lawyer is calling to make last minute catch up before I my hearing on Tuesday. 1st thing: I haven't even met her yet. I have been working with her paralegals up to now. 2nd thing: The hearing is Tuesday! I thought it was Thursday. My nervousness is now heightened. **yay**
At noon, I am meeting Joanne at Taco Bell in Londonderry to return her scanner she so graciously let Garrick & I borrow for the race. I promised all the details I could give her, that she didn't see on TV.
After I need to go to the gym. Then later we are off to Doug's for Exalted.
Saturday is the Deerfield Fair. I am going to be bad & bring a walking stick. I know I am not supposed to rely of them, but last year I didn't last a long time at the fair. I want to enjoy myself more than pain & fair food.
Oh, and this week... average time of falling asleep? er... around 3 or 4am. I will make sure I am in bed by midnight. Can't let this keep up! Anyone else having problems sleeping? er, wait... I asked that before didn't I. Oops. Christy
