Spinal Decompression Update
So things with my SD therapy are winding down. I am going to therapy about once a week now, and as per usual with any exercise am hit and miss. Though with taking the pills I am a bit better but that has never been a strong suit in my life either. They are mostly supplements, glucosamine/condroiten/msm, Herbal greens and Fish oils all for maintaining joint health.
So, interestingly one of the questions that they ask each time I go is on a scale of 1- 10 how much pain I am in, and the %-age of pain I have been in. I really had to think about that. I am a masochist, I have been sucking this pain up for 10 yrs.(give or take) so it was really interesting to me to try and put numbers on something like this. Hhehe so my solution was to figure out how I think I felt...the add about 10% or more to it, because stuff that would make most people cry just pisses me off.
The really cool thing was I came home from work on Wed, and was trying to figure out what was missing... it was the fact that I had NO back pain at all after a pretty intense 4hour cleaning session. Yay me. This comes and goes, I am still not doing any yoga, long walks or other exercise. Though I am back down to about a size 8 again, that has mostly been my lifestyle changes with food catching up with me.
The best thing has been the Tapping, it has helped me to deal with the high stress load that I was carrying. Its has been financially rewarding, and physically as well. The hard work is paying off, and it just keeps getting better.
So all in all things are looking up, cars are running and we even have a spare now..LOL. I have been spending some really fun creative time in the sewing room, and if my friend has her way my Hats will end up on a web-site soon. I will keep you posted.
well off to finish dinner.
