Youngest rang this morning.
She got 3 HD's in her first year of Post Grad Law (called Juris Doctor: I have no explanation as to why they call it that) for Property, Contract and Public Law.
Well done her.

Good on her. (But you don't want them to call it juris bachelor when it's postgrad -- 3 yrs? -- do you?!)

Apart from a slight headache, physically feeling as good as I've felt for weeks.

Legs improved since the physio last night, walked around Greensie doing some of the Xmas shopping, travelling better than I have for ages.

Finished off the Xmas shopping at Dan Murphys, they (finally) have Collingwood Whiskey there.

No oil, no massage, the chick was a physio not a hooker, she asked a lot of questions while inflicting discomfort to try to figure out WTF is wrong with me.
Might need more than a physio to work that out :wink: :lol:

hah, no, I gave it to the old girl to wrap as her Xmas present to me.

Things are looking up. Saw the cardiologist today, BP was actually not bad and he didn't seem fussed. Got some (more) new tabs to try out, see how that goes. Got some tests in January then go back, they're going to take some pictures of my heart. I might ask for one so I can prove I have one.

And I can feel my feet. :D Been doing the exercises the physio showed me and the numbness is going away, as is the leaden feeling in my legs. It's fkn hard walking when your feet are numb, let alone doing 6-8km a day in business shoes. On a bad day i was walking like steady Eddie.

Hehe,

Was something pressing on the nerves in your back? Maybe tight hamstrings too?
