5 blocks

Posted 09-14-2009 at 07:21 PM by berkana_thurisa
It might not seem like much...but I actually managed a walk of about 5 blocks last night, at a good pace. Not fast, but not a leisurely stroll either. For the past year or so, that would have been almost impossible. Even walking the 1/2 block to the mailbox and back again was torture. Joint pain had me in tears many nights while I stood trying to make supper.

I've been doing short bike rides every couple of nights, and last night I decided that I'd see how walking went for me. It...

I find it so very very frustrating when doctors look at the analytical results of the tests they ordered, don't see anything out of the oridinary, and then tell you that you're just fine...that there's nothing wrong with you! Well I don't feel just fine...and I KNOW there's something wrong...if their tests don't show it, then they ordered the wrong tests.

I'm so tired of one doctor saying "oh, you have this" and the next saying "no you don't, you're fine" and the...
