Lift it up.

Am increasing the height of the heel lift under my right heel. Have reached a neutral point and have been noticing a decrease in mobility so... suggested to chiro this a.m. he look and see if the right leg seemed shorter than the left and, yup, sure did. Have a new heel doohickey that I am going to put in my sandal before I have to take off again.

Am expecting a couple days of discomfort as my hip and back adjust to the increase but, as long as I stay mobile, it will wear off and I can continue to track improvement in my back.

I haven't, even with the temporary pause in progress, been anything like I was before we started with this new chiro. Even at the worst, I have been able to move about, get in and out of the shower and continue my daily tasks. Driving has been possible, too, without grinding pain in my hip, back and neck.

May times, as so often the case may be, change is a good thing.

About Me

A hobby cook from the Midwest. Experiments, thoughts, new recipes, maybe even a photo or two... You noticed the pouting little girl with the words superimposed over her face? Growing up in the 60s and 70s the refrain of "there are starving children in [insert current poverty-stricken nation] that would love to have such... etc etc etc." I don't know that anyone actually believed all that but the image of a starving foreign child, holding out a bowl in hopes of being gifted with boiled tongue or green tomato pie, was pretty powerful. I do recall the kind of trouble kids would inevitably be in if they dared to say what most of us thought: "Well, then, send this stuff right on over to those poor, starving [insert country] kids." I don't usually post other people's photos, just my own. If you want to borrow or use one of my photos, I would appreciate your asking first. I usually don't mind but do hate having my work attributed to someone else. By the way, I found the photo of that pouting girl on the web with no attribution. If it's yours? We'll deal, ok? Thanks.
