Notes to myself on health

I suppose I should make some health notes. I finished my physical therapy on the 24th before I picked up my parents. My shoulder is doing pretty well between the cortisone shot on August 26th and seven sessions with a therapist. They had authorized 12 but I think I'm fine. I saw Dr. Chen yesterday and scheduled arthroscopic surgery on my shoulder for January. Hopefully, this will head off subsequent "bad shoulder" episodes.

This week I have had a sore throat all week. I think this is reflux caused, perhaps from drinking coffee whilst my folks were here. I had three cups over the course of a week instead of my one cup over three months or so. *sigh* OTOH, I have also had some headachy/boy ache/malaize going on these last two days so who knows whether there is more than reflux. I really hate this stuff.

Oh well. Hopefully I will be better in the morning as I am going off to the de Young Museum with Mo, Maeva & Ember bright and early. I got through most of a day's work today, I can manage museums. And driving. Really.

The exhibit was amazing and wonderful and I am so very glad and grateful I got to see it!

I hope you are feeling better in the morning, so you can have a fun day.

Thanks! We did have a great day. The exhibit was great and so was the Oceania exhibit in the adjoining gallery.

Here's to continued care and recovery. I'm coming to understand the "youth is wasted.." proverb more each day but realize that without I wouldn't have survived this far. (ouch)

Enjoy the museum :)

Heh, yeah. What I wouldn't give for a 20-year old body and a 50-year old mind/experience. No wonder the fountain of youth is such a popular myth.
