| Well, I had a huge tummy scare yesterday...I was sure I was going to "whoops" and the pain was intense directly in the solar plexus area and pretty much under the top scar from the lapro surgery...maybe the adhesion needs work again? I am not sure. I have been stressing about personal healthstuff again. The work with Julie still hasn't resolved the left side spasms yet, but there are pieces of time that are without pain, or minimal pain. OTOH, the left hand /arm /shoulder area has intensified -- i.e. CTS. Drs Fuhs and Waite both are talking surgery. Fuhs said that it's a quick out-patient surgery that will help immensely, and down time is minimal. And, if I wait too long, I could do permanent damage to the nerve. I spoke to both Julie and a phone session with Belinda from CPT, and both are on the same page re: the work they could offer to un-crunch the bones and fascia et al that is probably adding to, if not causing the nerve to be "pinched". My dilemma ends up being first:
- Western POV -- i.e. surgery
- Eastern POV -- Acupunture, Clear Passage body work, Massage therapy etc.
Belinda says it will require a 20 hour intensive, i.e. 1 week - so which location?
- Gainesville, FL
- Newport Beach, CA
I'm leaning towards going to CP as both locations have an opening the week of October 8, but there are so many factors that don't make the locations "apples to apples", au contraire, the proverbial "apples to oranges" and I'm confused big time! The biggest negatives re: FL
- Loooong flights
- Drive to /from airport to Gainesville [with my exhaustion and poor brain retention it can make long distance drives prohibitive]
- Access to home if Mom needs me [ease of getting flights, and returning home in a timely way]
The biggest negatives re: CA
- I've never met Mary; we haven't worked together
- Money. This office doesn't work with insurance
- The surroundings are unfamiliar
So, there is a lot of stress -- making choices are not my forte.
So, I'm in an infinite loop and it's crazy-making. Maybe Marilyn can help me in my decision making.
Ack.
