On The Road To A Full Recovery

living.boondockingmexico@yahoo.com
Today Juan had his appointment with the neurologist.  In short, this is where he is at.  

His equilibrium is back in full swing but he has some minor dizziness caused by rest and no exercise.  It doesn't happen very often so that is good.  

His shoulder pain persists but it is called neuropraxia, a nerve condition in the skin's surface that will heal with time.  The doctor ordered more X-rays on his neck and an MRI for his shoulder just to confirm there is no torn muscle tissue.  

Juan will be off work for another two weeks with permission to have a meal or two out and take some short walks.  

Every day he gets better albeit the shoulder pain which affects his sleep.  The doctor prescribed a pain/sleeping aid as the pain affects his sleep.  All good now and just a matter of time.  Still no wine or vodka.

Next week he may ask for permission to travel to SMA and get some rest there where the weather is much better.  It has been 100F to 104F the last week and even though we have A/C the heat, in general, makes him tired.  

Thanks to everyone for their kind words and thoughts and keep them coming.  He loves to hear what you have to say.
