Of course its hard on you. I don't think I could do your job without being in pain either. Darn. Good for you for trying the yoga.

Good for Sally too for doing the housework and logging it in.

I Swam a mile today in a 84 degree pool and its is 84 degrees outside as well--I love FLorida weather.

Wiz runs into the thread sweating and panting.... Ok, I'm back!!!

I had a very bad cold so I was down for several days. Today I was feeling a bit better though and I did 40 minutes on the elliptical!

I did my first day of physical therapy for my neck injury and the therapist guy said that now that I'm a patient there, they can help me with my MS crap along with the neck injury stuff.

Apparently I have bad posture and they're going to help me with that.

Today he showed me some exercises, and had me lay on a table with electrode-like thingies on the back of my neck while laying on some really wonderful hot pads while the electrode thingies made my neck twitch. (felt kinda good actually) The heat was really nice, even tho my left hand got a bit more numb from it, it was freezing in their office (we've got record cold temperatures right now) so the heat packs were really really nice. I think that was the best part of the whole session was that moist heat and the electrode thingies.

Then he stretched my neck a bit to help loosen muscles that are causing me problems in nerve roots and stuff. (wow, all sorts of technical crap)

He was saying that he didnt think I had slipped a disc in my cervical vertebrae, but that it is obvious that there's a spot on my neck where I might have pinched a nerve root. He could feel where it was and from the look on my face when he touched it that it was the sore spot.

He thought the physical therapy should help me a lot, at least on the neck pain from when I hurt my neck, and my back pain that I've had for the past several years.

I told him I had been walking on a treadmill up till when I hurt my neck, and he told me to get back into doing that. I think I'll do that tomorrow. (too cold and icy to drive down there today)

The PT was nice, and I go back wednesday. Too bad it'll be with a different person, I liked the guy who did the PT stuff today.

Now that the cold weather is here I not only swim, I walk in the pool.

One of our club's indoor pools is heated the other one is cold (for lap swimmers).

I do my exercises’ in the warm water. Three times a week. It works for me and I’m planning to stop using my walker.

Keep the bones moving?

I moved some furniture. With the help of the handy dandy furniture sliders.

Oh, and I did some exercises they showed me at PT yesterday.

I need to do some more exercise. I might grab my dad and go down to the gym tonight and do some walking. At least it's cold enough now that if I get overheated while walking, I dont have to worry about that for long once I go outside. (I think it's like 4 degrees outside)
