Just another day in the life of me.. Mood
Wednesday, January 7, 2009 | A General Update story
So I saw the dr again yesterday and she is uping my weekly Methotrexate and gave me a muscle relaxer at night. She is also testing my blood to check the enzymes levels in my muscles and may refer me to a nuerologist. I start PT tomorrow and will go two days a week in addition to my weekly massage. I still can not walk to span of a store and bring the bags in without passing out in pain. So that will be my real test after more drugs and PT. Kids are finally back in school with all our snow days and winter break. They needed to go back and I needed them to go back too. Looking forward to a new year!

    Hi Kearsten,
    You are definately not functioning correctly, and medication tends to mask the problems, not solve them.
    Have you considered going down the naturopathic way, starting with structural body balance (structure governs function) and checking the validity of your diet? If you wish I can give complimentary help.
    Kind regards, Don Moody.
