Today I go and maybe get a giant needle stuck into my hip and have stuff injected in there. But I might not. It depends on what the doctor says. I hope he says,
LET'S DO IT!!!!
because I am eager to get the show on the road even though it's needles and needles freak the crap out of me. If it works, if it doesn't work...at least it's a starting point. So I'm smiling even though I haven't run since I can't even remember.
Thanks, everyone, for your shared excitement about the rowing. It was really fun. I did it twice last week, and that will be all...for now. Deciding to proceed with the prolotherapy course of treatment (which is not covered by insurance) will be a financial commitment that will already stretch us. Rowing is way more expensive than I had imagined. I had a hard time keeping a straight face when I was given the cost breakdown. What the WHAT? LOL! And, dude, 4:40 a.m. is sooooooo f*cking early!!!
For now the energy will be focused on healing or treating or whatevering my sweet little hurting hip :) I will not curse it. I will be loving it and nurturing it and promising to do right by it.
As I ponder what lies ahead, I've been spending time hanging with one of my favorite girls...
Can't catch me!
Yeah, right now I can't...but wait until I get this hip sorted ;-)
We know who runs the show around here...
...and clearly, it isn't me!
I'll be sure to report back about how the doctor appointment goes!
What would you want to do if you were a kid on vacation? Don't say Disneyland...think local :)
Ever tried a course of treatment that seemed experimental? How'd it go?
p.s. Jingle Bell Hellers...i have NOT forgotten about you!
