Race to 500 - May 30

First let me say that I am sorry for not posting a graph yesterday. I have no excuse. But here the graph for yesterday.
Ellen is still up by 20 miles, but I am still keeping close behind Rachel...

Doctor follow-up

So, I went to the doctor today about my leg. I had mentioned my leg surgery when scheduling the appointment, and I knew my doctor was aware of it because she'd had me do an x-ray of it a few months ago, so when I went in and she asked I started to explain the type of pain I was feeling but I didn't specifically mention the surgery and the metal plate in my leg. I thought she'd remember or it would be in my chart and I said something about it to the nurse that took my blood pressure and weight. Anyway, so after a few minutes of talking I realized she did not remember that anything had happened, so I said something like, "well, I remember when you had me get the x-ray a few months ago everything looked ok." Then she was like, "oh yes. So there's no mystery why that area is bothering you" so she gave me the names of 2 orthopedic surgeon and 2 physical therapists and said that if I decided to see either of them then I should call the office and they would do the referral. She also wrote me a prescription for an epi pen (so you can stop worrying family).
I told her that I was trying to be more active (the trying to be more active was causing the leg pain) and eat better and she said, "thank goodness, because you really need to".

Ok, that's not what she said, but I think that's what she meant. She said, "that's great. I'm very happy to hear you are doing that"

So, I think I'm going to go to the orthopedic surgeon and see what he thinks. If he thinks it looks fine she said I should just do what I'm comfortable with. If he thinks there may be a problem I try PT. Or I could just go to the physical therapist once to talk about how to do good stretches for my leg.

What do you think?

Race to 500 - May 27

Here it is as of May 27. But only Mr. H and I reported for May 26 and 27, so I bet when we hear from the others this will change, but for the first time in a long time I seem to be ahead of R Sr!!!! I'm sure once she tells me what she did the past two days that won't be true any more, but I can hope. Ellen: I'm coming for you!

Race to 500 - May 25

Here we go as of May 25. I got nothing for today because I was at a wedding all day!
