Debbie Cousins's Journal, 14 Apr 22

My knees aren't happy with the results of my doctor visit yesterday - didn't get anything for pain. PCP said that when I go to ortho visit on 4/29, ortho doctor may be able to get 3% diclofenac solution to be approved by insurance company (which they probably would not approve for him). I use the OTC 1%, and it gives SOME relief, so maybe the 3% will do better. Gave me a referral for an ENT to see about the slit in my nostril - didn't think I needed to see a dermatologist about it. I have a full-body dermatology visit scheduled for late July, though, so they can still check it at that time.

Today is another all-I-can-stuff-in day, I'm afraid! Had breakfasts (plural) at 2am, 5am and just now at 6:30.

Only got in 2miles of walking yesterday. Just wasn't as motivated. Getting a later start on it this morning (7am), but I'm hoping to be able to log at least 3 miles for the day.

Weight up by a little over a pound this morning. Not sure what that's about? It will probably be back down again tomorrow, since I've had a couple of moving experiences this morning.
115.4 kg Lost so far: 2.1 kg.    Still to go: 47.4 kg.    Diet followed: Poorly.

Have you heard of cbd? My mom rubs it on her joints when her arthritis acts up and she says it helps bunches.

@nata111444, I've never tried CBD. It's real expensive, isn't it?

Voltaren gel helped with my knees and now my shoulders. I tried that gel shot and it didn’t help me but the steroid shots did. Everyone is different but the thing is, if you get that shot then you have to wait at least 6 weeks before you can get the steroids again. Something to ponder.

I do not know what to say - But - I am still here for you - so - have a great day Debbie. You are walking more often than I am and putting in more miles and I am a few years younger than you are! Any way - have a great day.
