Sore muscles!
Aug 09, 2011
Ouch! I am definitely feeling yesterdays workout this morning. We went to our exercise group at Mercy hospital last night and I tried a new machine out. It was a recumbant elipitical machine. Boy am I feeling it in the backs of my thighs. Ouwie!!So I have been starting to wean off of my oxygen. It has been going pretty good. The first few days were hard and I just felt like I needed to wear the oxygen. After I started to get used to not having it on it seemed more normal to not have it on. I still have to wear it when I am active/exercising and when I am asleep. So I don't use it when I am home relaxing, I just put it on when I am out and about. I know in the beginning it was definitely a comfort thing. I think that I had gotten so used to the oxygen that it was actually comforting and "normal" to have it on. I know it took some getting used to not wearing it. But I feel so much better now that I am starting to wean off of it. I see the pulmonologist in September so it will be interesting to see if I can fully go off of it by then or what she has to say.
Tomorrow is my husbands sleeve surgery. He was lucky and didn't have to do a pre-op liquid protein diet. He is today on clear liquids so I know it will be rough for him. I think he is getting a litlte nervous about surgery.
