I haven't posted for about a week for two reasons: 1) My laptop has been in the shop all that time; and 2) I haven't felt up to it anyway. ( The laptop still isn't working all that great, so I hope this even posts).
By about the fourth day after the Bowen therapy, I was seeing some slight improvement in energy. I actually took a friend to a doctor's appointment and then had lunch. I have to admit I felt ok during that but as soon as I got home, I was t.o.a.s.t.
On Friday, I was pretty exhausted but since Jenna has been feeling pretty sick for the last week, she relented and agreed to see a doctor, as long as I went with her. I ate something and took her to urgent care since her doctor had the day off. - of course.
We were at Urgent Care for over 3 hours! She had some blood drawn and throat cultures. I dropped her off at her apartment and went home and crashed since I was t.o.a.s.t. again. I probably pushed myself too hard. I just don't usually have the energy to sit up for 3+ hours and did that for two days in a row.
I got up in the morning on Saturday and felt ok - but after being up for about 2 hours, just couldn't even sit up at all. Jenna needed groceries and so did we, so Jeff went to the store and then took some over to her. I still couldn't get up by bedtime, so gave up on getting anything done. BTW, Jenna has mono - again!
Sunday was pretty much the same thing. I have tried to get in a shower at least every other day, but it was Sunday and I hadn't showered or washed my hair since Thursday! So, that was the only thing I accomplished on Sunday - a shower. Pathetic, I know.
Monday morning I was scheduled for another bowen therapy treatment but wasn't sure that I was going to be able to drive myself, so had my visiting teacher lined up to take me. By the time it was time to go to the appointment, I was feeling decent, so drove myself. I stopped at Jenna's on the way home and dropped off some essential oils and supplements for her. She also lives across the street from Bed Bath and Beyond so I bought myself an orthopedic pillow to see if that will help my neck problems. I felt ok for the afternoon and even made a nice salad for dinner. Jeff on the other hand, was in so much pain, he just went right to bed as soon as he walked in the door from work. I was done for the day about 7:00pm
Today, Tuesday, I was on the couch for about 95% of the day. Weak neck,really weak right arm, super fatigued and dizzy.
