quick update

I'm back for a short while. I went to the orthopedic last week. Took x-rays and saw the doc. I have a cervical strain. I have to to physical therapy 2-3X a week and he gave me a muscle relaxer and anti-inflammatory. I totally strained something in my shoulder and back on Sunday. I went to my first PT appt. today. They did an evaluation and some therapy as well, as gave me some exercises to do at home 6 days a week. They kept asking me if I remembered when I injured it or how I did it. I don't know. The muscles are so strained that they are putting pressure on my nerves. I had numbness and pins/needles in my arm again yesterday with some loss of feeling around my elbow. Today they put some heat and did some massage on my neck, shoulder and back. My reflexes were symmetrical and my strength was equal.

Miranda is done with school on Friday. Next week is she is off. The first week in June she starts vacation bible school. I'll be doing arts/crafts there that week with the kids. Looking forward to it.

A beast has joined the family. I'll introduce the BEAST a little later.......

I call our RV the Beast, but I'm assuming you don't have the same kind of Beast.

I'm intrigued...

Hoping the meds fix all your problems, too!
