anapositive

I’m nervous I’m going to be told to give up a fairly new, but very enjoyable and empowering hobby, jogging. Yes, I’m chronically ill with joint inflammation, but I focus on physical therapy regularly, never jog more than once a week, and no more than 2 miles at a time.

Long story short, last year after a 1-mile jog, my foot went tingly and stayed that way for months. It eventually landed me in a boot for 4 months, and it took doctors over 6 months to figure out a treatment plan.

Fast forward to today, I’ve been jogging routinely since January, and things have been going well. But after my most recent jog, the tingling came back. It’s now across the entire bottom of my foot, constant, and even wakes me up at night. I’m scared that if I go to the doctor, I’ll either be put in a boot again all summer or be told (again) to quit something I’ve finally found joy in.

To make things even more complicated, my mom was recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s, so a small part of me wonders if this could be an early sign of something neurological.

I want to trust the healthcare system, but the truth is, I’m struggling to.
