Gosh, what a shitty day.
My baby sis is in hospital with a blood clot on her lung… pregnant after much difficulty, making treatment somewhat challenging. It’s been on my mind constantly and made today tough to get through.
I have been feeling very depressed lately, missing out on family things and home, last week was a real tipping point.
Went to a new chiro today. Turns out I have a few things going on…Piriformis syndrome, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and Upper crossed syndrome…sounds like magic spell names 😊. Finally explains the shoulder pain, numb arm, lower back pain, headaches, difficulty breathing, muscle weakness, fatigue and overall super bitchy grumpiness. At least I wasn’t having a heart attack even though it felt like it Lol. On the scale of what is considered normal range of motion, mine was below half and I have practically no pulse on either side when putting my arms out to the side. Riveting stuff I tell you!
After embarrassing myself with some involuntary tears, the poor chiro guy apologised and sent me on my way. So drugged up and a glass of wine later, I feel a fraction closer to normal. Not happy, but almost normal.
Now all I need is to get some news my sister is healthy and ok.
Yeah, put me down for some TOS! (Thorasic Outlet Syndrome). I highly recommend chiro. Massage. And more massage. There is no medical test to prove that one but people who know the body can ease it. Don’t do anything crazy. Hope you get some good news soon about your sister. Cheers,H
