Counting the days
I’m counting the days until I see the orthopedic doctor about my left shoulder and elbow.(April 19) I have trouble with both shoulders as it happens. Also when I bend and reach for something I often feel a pop in my neck. The right shoulder and neck are nothing compared to the left side. I’m hoping for physical therapy rather than surgery. I want to go back to Pilates and yoga and weight lifting, but no way until the doc okays it.
Getting old sucks, but I’ve been so much more active since about 2014 when I worked part-time and started Zumba. I worked with a trainer then too. I think it’s made a difference. Just have to keep at it and avoid stopping and starting. That’s what hurts me as far as weight lifting goes, because I hate it. I stop and start and I hurt myself. I have to remember the HeeHaw method of staying healthy. “Doctor, it hurts when I do that.” “Well, don’t do that.”
