AAAAARRRRGGGGG

What a pain in the neck!

I have been bitching since the 90s about my neck if you know me you know I have TOS or:

I opted not to have it surgically addressed and instead I work to keep the muscles in good shape and loose and I take lots of drugs, muscle relaxers and anti-inflammatories. I only sleep on my water pillow which gives it lovely support. I also get a massage when I can no longer move my neck into normal positions.

AT LEAST I DID!

With all the new stuff since January I can no longer take anti-inflammatories, nor muscle relaxers! So today is the day, after a ridiculous amount of time I will be going to see the amazing Hannah at noon for a massage. I am so excited. I scheduled a short appointment because there are still so many parts of me that cannot be touched so I want her to only work on my neck and shoulders. I will be so sore tomorrow but I bet I will also sleep tonight and be able to move my head again.

I have been off chemo for sixish months and one of the funner results is that my nails are growing! Some of them are still in bizarre shapes and I imagine that is permanent but they are growing so much faster and I have been taking such good care to get the stronger. Yay for fun nail polish again!

Because I am getting a massage today I am also taking a rest day and not doing any workouts. I feel so decadent. 🙂
