4 Months Later

I had another reassessment today and it went really well. The outer parts of my cerebellum are pretty much functioning well. My balance is improved a ton and is almost the same as anyone else through the testing. The mid-line still needs a little work, so I'll continue with the same exercises to strengthen that further.

My frontal lobe area is improved in a lot of ways, but my speed is still lacking. I have a new exercise to work on that for the next few weeks. This should improve some of my speed of thinking, processing, and motivation.

There are some issues with my energy levels still. I am still having fatigue with physical and cognitive activity, so they are testing my adrenal glands and cortisol levels. After the results come back in a month, we will see what the issue is and how to work on it.

In many ways, today was a graduation of sorts. I'm definitely getting better. The lines between the head injury and just who I am are starting to get blurred. I will be going to the office only once a month now for therapy exercises, assessment, and adjustments.

Please pray that I will be able to continue to improve. I hope that my test results reveal something that's easy to address, so I can get some energy back. Please pray that I will stay disciplined with my nutrition and exercises during each month in between going into the office. Thank you so much for all your love and support during my treatment!
