I have been doing better. The warm weather has been excellent and I have been taking advantage of it. My treatments with tDCS seem to be getting better and I have been able to go for walks at the local forest preserve with my dog. Still need to use the walker but feel much stronger and generally healthier. The pain and allydonia in my my hands and arms has been reduced with the new protocol I am using with the tDCS which is very encouraging. I can only hope things continue to move in a positive direction.

Take care of yourself and definitely have a talk with that therapist of yours to make sure she doesn't do that to you again. You need to push and do as much as you can but forcing you to do things that you are not up to yet will just make things worse and cause a setback. Sending good thoughts your way and hope you feel better soon.
