Default Choices

Sorry for your struggles. A few questions may be in order first. Your age? What kind of support and accommodations are your friends and family giving you. Also what kind of accommodations are you giving yourself.

For myself I have had three ER visits. More Dr. appts that led nowhere than I care to think about. When I was trying hardest to keep my life style pre-injury. I was literally Killing myself. My BP was going so high it was high risk of stroke.

Not wanting to risk what I had left I moderated my life style. While not the same, and I still get frustrated it is the best balance I can manage. I hate to say this but are those who care about you most understanding your struggles?
You may want to help educate them.

There are some good books. Also there is a great you tube video. You look great parts 1 thru 6. You could have them watch it and it will help them understand. There are those where I work who think I am faking it. I would trade places with them in a heart beat.
