Hey Lao,
Yes I played a lot of ball and I miss the heck out of it. Now I'm having trouble just walking comfortably.
I would love to do pilates! I will be doing some of that in the future. Not a girly thing at all. I'm pretty comfortable with my sexuality in that way. Sh*t, I've even thought about doing Zumba! Well more for meeting the girls that the actual workout ; )
Doing some pool exercise is a great suggestion! They actually offer a pool aerobics class at my gym and I need to check it out for sure.
Thing is, I've feel so bad so often, I can't even get my *ss out of the house-I'm not talking about depression. I just saw a doctor today that thinks I could have an autoimmune disorder called Charco-Marie-Tooth. Yeah totally odd name huh. So it basically involves your immune system attacking the myelin sheath covering your peripheral nerves. When she saw how high my arches on my feet are, she said that high arches like mine can be an indication of a possible predisposition to this particular autoimmune disorder, CMT we will call it. Ugh, I really hope I don't have it, but at least that would explain some things and I would be able to start on a treatment plan.
She also suggested that I see a Lyme disease specialist despite my testing negative 2 times. She said a chronic infectious disease like Lyme could trigger CMT.
I'm seeing a neurologist on Friday and I hope to get a referral to a good Lyme specialist and a Rheumatologist(they typically are the ones that diagnose autoimmune disorders
Even though Lamictal doesn't seem to give you the boost it initially did, I'm sure it is helping to keep you stable.
Thanks as always for you suggestions and support!
Get off you *ss and get some moderate exercise for 30 minutes 4 times a week! Exercise is by far the best natural thing you can do for your brain!
Talk you you later brotha! Be Well!
Morgan
