I keep thinking I'll get some exercise, even if the most minimal, and that's about all I've done so far. A few days ago I found my old elastic band that came with my stair-stepper years ago. I can't use the stepper with my bad sense of balance (combined with insensitive feet due to neuropathy), but I've been practicing "lifts" with the band; I have no idea what to call them. If I keep it up, maybe I'll discover the names on the Internet. About 5 minutes of lifts 3 times a day, nothing the least bit extreme. But maybe it'll get easier. After all this, either I can punch someone in the face or just hit them in the knee with my cane. I hope I knock them unconscious, though, since I'm never too stable on my feet any more!

Seems to be a lot of that neuropathy thing going around these days. I've heard that 3 times this week.
ReplyDeleteI think there's neuropathy of different parts of the body and I have no idea which is worse. I wouldn't want anybody except George Bush to have it anywhere!
ReplyDeleteWork out, it could be good for you.
ReplyDeleteI had to look up "neuropathy" on Google.
ReplyDeleteSorry to read of your difficulties, Ron.
Yes exercise, mild, will probably lift the spirits if nothing else. ;-)
We got a tradmill a few weeks ago.
It's so boring though - still - gotta keep at it, little by little.
I don't mind boring. Boring is all around me; it smooches my ass and bites off my head. I do mind when everything is such a damned effort!
