PT Pain

It has been six weeks since I had my shoulder surgery. The doctor is happy with my progress. Physical therapy seems to be going good too. They say I am doing very well for six weeks post-op. My PT success may be due to the fact that I take Percocet and Flexiril before each treatment. I am glad they are happy.

I came home from PT yesterday and without hours I started getting a really bad headache. So bad that I had to take additional Percocet to get rid of it. I believe it is tension because it seemed to start at the back of my skull and work forward through my brain. I don't know if it was the result of my therapy or something else. I will have to talk to them tomorrow and see what they think.

Well, today, right now, I am starting to get another headache. I have taken something light for it and see how it goes. Maybe it will not be as bad as last night.

Are you looking for ET?

One of the coolest things I have been involved with is the project known as SETI@home. I am looking for ET by downloading collected radio data from the SETI Institute. My computer processes the data looking for signals from ET.

Don't get this confused with little green men. This is REAL science. Below are my stats. If you want to participate, you can find more information at SETI@Home

Return home

I have made it back from my 'vacation.' My insurance denied my out of state physical therapy and I was sent home. I did not want to leave. I feel very bad about it. I think the guys understand. I hope they do anyway.
