Kind of stressing a little

Just  a bit stressed right now. I went back to new England Rehab hospital today for a follow up with the docs over there and A PT it was determined that I don't have much range of motion in the ankle that they did the surgery on. The physical therapist asked me to move my foot up and down and inward and out she said i had nill to no range in any direction so I have to go to pt for the ankle as well.

I did get a prescription to change my AFO to articulating or hinging at the ankle. they are hoping that adding some of the natural flow of movement back in will help improve the range a little bit along with pt. I go to that appointment on march 8th. I have been having spinal manipulations for back and pelvic pain which seem to be helping a little witht he back pain I can say for sure. I have not been in a ton of pelvic pain recently so i am hoping this is a peek into what may lay ahead for me but i am not counting this as a blessig yet I am enjoying it but it will more than likley be temporary.

Feeling good for now

I have been feeling pretty well pain wise latley my hip is bothering me still but I am trying to push through that. The meds my GYN put me on for my pelvic spasms are helping . I am in less pain right now with endo than i have been in a long time. I have now taken up the nice activity of trying to loose weight or at least just get some cardio exercise even if i dont loose anything im making my heart a bit more healthy.

I have also been working really hard watching my lil nephew he is five months old my niece and nephews are my world adn the reason I have chosen to use my good days to try to get in shape. I want to be able to be more active with them than i have been in the past with all the health issues. I am also working on building A speech library on his android in hopes that it will make it easier for him to communicate after hsi stroke. I Am curious for those who have non verbal kidos with cp what apps do you use for the I pad or other comunication device for school work thank you for any insight It is apreciated
