The past 2 days have been a blur. I went to the dr and have a sinus infection. I thought for sure I had strep because my throat feels like it's on fire! I'm on an antibiotic and hopefully will start feeling better soon.I can't stay awake and just want to sleep. The kids and I have a 4 day weekend,I don't want to spend it sick!
   I went to therapy this morning. My foot is still wrapped for now but I'm wearing my thigh high compression stocking! It feels strange.From being wrapped my skin is so sensitive.I admit, it's a pain in the butt to get it on. I have to wear rubber gloves so I don't put a hole in it.I worked up a sweat trying to pull the darn thing up! I will need to adjust it through out the day I'm sure but once it's on it's very comfortable actually.My foot piece should be in by the end of next week.I don't have to go back to therapy until it's in. Then they will take one last measurement!
    It's kind bittersweet,I guess.It will be wonderful not going there 3 times a week! We are there for usually 2 to 2 1/2 hours each time.Brian and I have learned so much but I'm still nervous about being on our own with this. I know if we have any questions or concerns we can call though. I have gotten close to my occupational therapist and will really miss talking to her. I'm sure we will be in touch from time to time.She has already said she wants to be kept up to date on my progress.
There may not be a cure for lymphedema but I'm doing everything I can to improve.And who knows, maybe some day there will be a cure. :)
