The Year of the Doctor!!

I was so excited because at the end of May I was going to be done with Dr appointments for awhile, but I guess that won't be happening.  Last Thursday, after walking on the treadmill for 2 miles, I got off and fell down right away.  I landed on my hands and knees.  I didn't think I hit my neck, but it was very sore after the weekend.  I went to my pain Dr on Monday.  After 2 hours and 4 x-rays later, they found a fracture in my neck right below the skull.  So now I GET to wear a neck brace for 6 weeks!!  I will go see a spine and brain Dr. next Wednesday to make sure my spines ok!  Which I believe it is, but just to be on the safe side!!
I have to learn to be more careful and take my time!  My body does not bounce back after a fall, like it use to!!!But on the bright side I have lost 20 lbs!!  I am being careful not to gain it back, while I recovery!!..My Dr. said I could still ride my stationary bike and walk a little bit.  I glad that I already had a pain specialist to go to!  God really blessed me and had me go to the right Dr.  I also really glad that I went to nutritionist so I know how I can be watching my weight and nutrition as I recover!!  I been sleeping in my recliner, which I got when I broke my ribs last summer!!I also have really good friends that are taking care of me!!

Took this picture because I look like Chubby Chipmunk.  Now I wants some Chubby Chipmunk from Deadwood.  My nutritionist wouldn't like that idea!!  

We went to Black Bear Dinner after being at the Dr office for 2 hours!  At least I can have a smile on my face.  I actually been laughing at myself, because I can't believe I did this!!
