~ Alright… for everyone who was wondering…
Just came back from the neurologist and he’s sending me for an MRI and more blood tests…LOTS of blood tests, he said I was gonna feel like a vampire after all those…Ewww…
He also said that because of my symptomes, that he thinks it might be ” Fibromyalgia” But we’re not sure of anything yet… we’ll see more after all those tests. They put a rush on it and all this should be done in ANOTHER 2-3 MONTHS… So more waiting for me…But at least, we’re getting somewhere I guess… http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001463/

Thanks for letting us know how your appointment went. Sharing this tough time period in your life takes courage. We appreciate the updates. We are all in your corner. Laura
Nadine
Thank you so much girls… Wouldn’t have this much courage to keep going if it wouldn’t be for all the great friends and family I have… I so lucky! Im not sure when I’ll be able to start again… The doctor “kinda” give me the ok, but he said to do it in moderation… For now, I just have to wait that I regain my “grip” … I can barely close my hands so it would be too hard to do anything…rings, bars…PLUS those stupid pills he wants me on… he said I will feel like Im on a hangover in the morning, until Im used to them… so it would be kind of hard to train…ahhhhhhhh… more waiting…. 🙁
Lora
If you have any questions about the pills the doctor is recommending, ask away. Although I’m a pharmacist, I’m not a fan of taking pills either (haha….weird eh?).
Nadine
Hey Laura 🙂
He wants me to take ” Elavil” if Im not mistakin… really hard to read. But I called his secretary this morning to see if there was ANYTHING else I could take thats not in the anti-depressant family… I can’t see why I would have to take an anti-depressant to sleep better… and thats just to see that, if I have a good sleep, if I would be in less pain during the day. But why not just a “muscle relaxant” or something like that, if its just to see anyways?? Why prescribe a big drug like this? … to make money, right…
Chin up Nadine! In the mean time, come visit us at the gym!
Rob Brydges
Thinking about ya. Keep us updated.
Nadine
Thanks Patrick and Rob!! Missing the gym THATS for sure!!!
But my first question to him, after him telling me that I had to stop doing too much and slow down was “can I go back to the gym”… he started to laugh, but said yes… in BIG moderation. So, Im going back!! lol
Gonna SUCK doing everything super modified, but its better then staying home!
Im just waiting to see if what he wants to prescribe me helps at least my hands cause right now, I have no grip! Can’t close my hand without having shooting pain through my arms, would be hard to hold the bar… but no matter what, I have November 1st in my head so, pain-no pain, IM BACK! lol

Great job nooners!
I like the noon class more and more every time I do it! Definitely going to be doing it more often.
Amanda
I had a strategy to pace myself in the early rounds so that I wouldn’t fatigue my shoulders too early but I’m wondering if maybe I paced myself a little too much and could have gotten a few more reps if I had taken on a one more rep in the earlier rounds.
