I had my first physical therapy appointment this morning, and breathing a sigh of relief because I was not diagnosed with fibromyalgia. At least not yet.

What I am dealing with is rotator cuff tendinitis in both shoulders, triggered by…drumroll…stress and tension. Different diagnosis, same cause. Even if it had been fibro, I would still be treating it in a similar way. I need to up my fitness game and get back to the prehab stretching and strengthening exercises I used to do, so I don’t spend my life doing rehab exercises and missing out on good stuff. #ontheball #Fitness #Flexibility #stability #corestrength #mindbodyspirit

If you can move closer to your goals or be free from stigma, that is comforting. Challenging yourself can also be comforting once you experience progress or some support. Isolation is sometimes necessary, but allows for fixation and paranoia. Don’t be ashamed to take it slow and get your footing stable before you run into the hills and inspire others or yourself! #selfcare #corestrength #Isolation #LifeLessons #Bipolar
