Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Log
RA health log. Today I am changing the health log a little. I will update it daily if I can or write about several days if I miss a day or two. Today I am catching up on the last week. Saturday I had stiffness in my hands when I was holding the camera. Monday night I began to get stiffness in my neck and shoulders. Yesterday it finally started raining and the pain and stiffness have went down in the pain levels. Just annoying right now.
I finally setup an appointment for a neck, back and shoulder massage, it is for Saturday and I am looking forward to it. Flexeril is definitely keeping the pain down, I did forget to take it one night and I was in pain while sitting the next day.
I only did exercise 2 days this past week, getting ready to hit the Wii now and I will try to do that daily if I can.
Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Log Day 93-94
Day 93-94 of my RA health log. Still doing good with no pain or stiffness. Yesterday I reduced the Flexeril to 2 pills instead of 3, so far my back still feels good. I did call and leave a message at one place for massages, I hope to hear back from them tomorrow.
Yesterday I did do 30 minutes on the Wii Fit, 1 round of boxing which is 13 minutes then a variety of stretches and other exercises. I have not done any exercise today.
Yesterday I had a latte for breakfast, Starbucks venti mocha and cinnamon swirl for lunch and a cheeseburger and fries from Steak n Shake for dinner. Today I had a Starbucks venti mocha and cinnamon swirl for breakfast and will be making a salad for dinner.
