Hello Jennifer and Thank you for the welcome to Connect!
The best way to describe my “Health Maintenance Routine” is to list what I do or have done. I’m also constantly pivoting to adapt to challenges as they arise, so here goes!

***MEDICATIONS***
*NAPROXEN
(Discontinued 4/3/24 thinning my blood too much & causing uncontrollable bloody noses)
*CYCLOBENZAPRINE
*TURMERIC
*LIQUID FISH OIL
(Stopped for 1 month so nose can heal/ also thins the blood)
*CBD GUMMIES
*WOMEN’S PROBIOTIC

***PHYSICAL AIDS***
*SALONPAS PATCHES & LIDOCAINE ROLL ON
*ICE/ HEATING PAD
*COMPRESSION SHIRT *COMPRESSION BELT
*CUSTOM ORTHOTICS
*HAND-HELD MASSAGER/ FOAM ROLLER & TENNIS/ LACROSSE BALL
*HANDICAP PLACARD

***EXERCISES***
*YOGA
*WALKING
*SWIMMING
*BIKE RIDING
*HIKING
*ZUMBA (modified)

***PAIN MANAGEMENT***
*CHIROPRACTIC CARE
*SWEDISH MASSAGE
*TRIGGER POINT INJECTIONS: Done by my (Physiatrist)

I Hope anyone who reads this will find something helpful that works for them; learn something new; or feel inspired to try something new!
