Ok, hopefully can get off or take less meds now that my PT has done wonders on my neck. Back to fruits and veggies. It is amazing how good I feel when I can eat healthier. Unfortunately I have a really bad stomache and can't take strong medications unless I eat a lot of High Carb and full fat dairy. The muscle relaxers paired with the anti-inflamatories just didn't take kindly to a mostly fruit and veggie diet. But now I am able to slow down on the pills (at least I hope) and get back to my fruits and veggies. I had a lot of friends that were very nice and didn't say things like - that is just an excuse - and have a great doctor who said do what I have to do so I don't get ulcers while taking the medication - and it helped me to stay focused and work with the PT while keeping in the back of my head that as soon as I can get back to the diet, I will. My husband was also very supportive and when I got down he would just say don't worry about it honey - you will get back to it once you are better. It was so nice to have the understanding and positive support vs. the negative comments that I usually hear people say to others or have said to me in the past (like that is just an excuse). Wish me luck!! :blushing:
