dolariHealth Update...
Neck Pain: I'm able to sit at the computer more and more often now without pain, up to an hour. My left arm isn't weak anymroe, but still buzzes. The physical therapy seems to be working, and the injection (which was a nightmare), has left my neck stiff, but not nearly as painful. I'm hoping I'll be able to get back to writing and drawing this week. Don't want to say that too loudly because the Universe tends to punish me for being creative.
Chronic Cough: The speech therapist has determined that my cough is caused by a delay in my swallow reflex (and sometimes it not triggering at all) causing junk to drizzle into my lungs. Some muscle therapy is in order to fix that, but at least we know what's causing it.
Psoriasis: I'm finally on the medication to clear that up. I hope I find work, soon, because outside of insurance, it's $10,000 a dose. Seriously. Holy crap. Still too soon to see any clearing, but if it does clear it, the only thing holding me back from my surgery would be my weight.
Things are looking up, health wise at least.
