I have been really tired the last few mornings and I think it may be related to the medication I'm taking, or just that I've been doing more than usual and my body recognizes the new activity. I like the afternoon energy. I like that I got to go to Great America several weeks ago and I like that I went to the Giants game the other night where there was a lot of walking and stair-climbing. Shopping still wears me out, but that could be mental as well as physical because I should be saving, not spending, right now.
Getting a balance for the medicine is tricky, but I think that once the very slight stomach discomfort subsides, it's a good combination. Being willing to trust the doctors is also a big step, especially if one has tried to rely on healing from within. Honestly, though, there are just some things that are actually structural or genetic and the proof is in the MRIs or bone scans or whatever diagnositics validate the problem. Arthritis in my feet -- bone on bone -- is fact. Blown discs are fact. So stepping out in faith that the medication is what is needed is a positive choice in the right direction. And it may well contain the progression. I am hopeful.
That said, life is good. Family is healthy, soccer is underway, the holidays approach and I have enough.
