Thank-You Colleen. Rehab exercises I do are occupational therapy right now which can be very challenging some of them. Does anyone else keep doing there physical therapy exercises at home after they completed and got discharged from PT. I feel like I should as my balance which is pretty good now sometimes gets poor which I associate with stress and fatigue. Having balance issues right now is very scary with all the ice. I did fall Thanksgiving morning but the person I live with caught me before I hit the floor. I have a treadmill and I run on it which I love it is a lifesaver for me. I actually got to where my body could physically handle running faster some days but my brain wasn't. I would get the sharp pain in my head and eyes when I would do the cardio bursts, so they told me at rehab to slow down a little and that helped and enabled me to complete other tasks during the day cause I felt better.

After I was discharged from my 1st round of PT I didn’t keep up on the exercises because I forgot. I was experiencing some recurrence of symptoms, so I got back in : the very week before the lockdown. Unable to do much. Started again this fall, but the exercises were too painful to do at home. This was after my Nov. 26 incident. I cancelled my last visit in December and haven’t been back. Seems like it’s getting harder and harder to get logged in to any helpful online site. I’m so tired that I can’t accomplish it in one day, and I go back to it the next day, it’s like I had never done the work the day before.
