Overdue update

We were on vacation the end of July, so I've not updated for a while.

No more doctors (unless I need medicine refills or change).  I am treating myself with home-use ultrasound.  I did 3 weeks of therapy on my right foot, then a week break (per instructions).  The week break coincided with our vacation, so that worked out great.  The day we got back, I started again, but this time on my left foot.  I plan to do my right foot again after 2 of my 3 weeks are done for this round.  Then maybe I'll be done, or maybe I'll do the left foot again, will have to wait & see.

The treatment I am doing is basically for tarsal tunnel, even though all the testing I've had was inconclusive (not ruled out however).

I'm also taking nerve pain medicine, and have been tracking every day (my pain level).  I need to make a decision very soon (in the next day or two) regarding my dose level, and what I want to do.  I might change meds, as my headaches seem to have increased with the higher dose.

But anyway, I'm still working on fine-tuning things.  I haven't used the wheelchair for 3-4 weeks.  I did actually do one round of Walmart without the motorized cart, but did regret it halfway through, so this past Friday eve, I was back to the cart.  My goal of course is total healing, and I am praying towards that end.

My pain was "normalized" at about a 5-6 on a 0 is best, 10 is worst pain scale.  I have improved it to to a daily level of 3-4 for the last several days (woo-hoo!).

I'll try to keep this updated if/when things change again.
