Had another follow up with my neurosurgeon -- I'm off work for another 3 1/2 weeks. At first I was feeling like a huge slacker, after all, I was supposed to go back last week. Then I stopped by the office to drop off my latest Dr. note. My assistant needed some help, so I sat down at my desk to show him how to do something. 45 minutes later I was in agony...there is no way I can sit at a computer for 8 hours a day right now.

I started physical therapy this week -- not sure what I think about it, but I'll keep it up. It seemed kinda wimpy....a little massage, some stretches. Think I'll ask my PT about doing some light weights, maybe a little Pilates. I need to get my behind back out and walk....I've let the cold chase me inside these last couple of weeks.
