Hi Conster! I was wondering how you were doing. I had two very good weeks right after the 4 week mark of having my shots (so, weeks 5 and 6 were really good) Then, feeling so good I did a little yard work thsi past weekend. I am paying for it a little this week, but not nearly as bad as similar activity would have done to me in the past. SO..I'll remain positive that what I am doing is working.

I define 'better' as I have been taking 1 vicadin every day or every other day...vs before I was taking 1-2 vicadin per day.

The massage therapist at my chiropractor and the Hellerworker who I saw today both have commented that the side I got more botox on feels looser than the side that got less. This seems like a good thing- that it is actually doing what it is supposed to.


I am trying to take this opportunity to make the most of massage and manipulation therapies to try to work the muscles and tissues while they are chemically loosened. I hope that it will pay off. I am cautiously optomistic, but since it is still pretty early...well, who knows what will happen.

I do still love that end of the day meeting with my heating pad, though....

speaking of which, it is calling me!!!

Talk again soon...

Johanna
