So it would seem that i have missed an entire year of blogging, I am definitely not very good at this. Though in my defense, dealing with my fibro and CFS has been an all encompassing force that I have had to deal with. Lets see, what happened last year that might be mentionable.... I finally moved out of the basement and into a much larger and brighter main floor apartment. I think the kitchen has almost the same square footage as my old apartment, well that could be a bit of an over statement, but it sure feels like it. During the summer months my Fibro and CFS calmed down abit and I felt somewhat human during that time. However, once the weather started to change it all went downhill. Anyway, Murphy and I are now only 2 short blocks from the park so there have been many more walks there than before. Murphy now expects to go to the park everyday.
Some not too good things have also happened. Like I said, once the weather started to turn in the fall my Fibro and CFS really started to flare up and has been a constant issue up until now. I am trying a multi-displinary approch to manage the illness which includes medical specialists, massage, chiropratics (not really into the adjustments yet)but the assesment was great and was told that I have a slipped rib on the left upper back... joy oh joy. I will be starting accupucture with my chiro next week. I am also seeing a naturopath to help improve my diet and hopefully use some more natural ways of managing all this crap. And I have come to the realization that management is the best I will be able to do.
Murphy has been seen by an orthopedic vet and has been given the go ahead to have the FHO surgery to fix his hip. I am hoping to have it done mid-April so that by the time he is in his rehab stage I will be on my summer vacation and will be able to do the rehab myself. So I am trying to save as much as possible as the surgery will be approximately $4000.00.
Well I guess that enough for now.
