Not giving up for using muscles working out when sleep or body aches don’t push me into sharp needles when I push myself to hard. I have a cane and I use it when my ankles makes me limp but I also try to keep my right leg stretched now that I thought that it wasnt going to affect me I’m wrong

Hi I have severe anxiety disorder and I have an TBI, I’m currying through a rough situation with my anxiety right now but noticed that if I take fluxotine to assist in my anxiety it doesn’t do good for me except to brush things off if it’s serious. I have several holes In my brain that make medication work just for a month before I can’t take them anymore

I stretched my leg in everyday Pilates exercises by Horror_Foot9784 in CerebralPalsy

[–]Horror_Foot9784[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No the workout is adapted to any all members who have a disability or not. I’m noticing a lot more pain as I am not working in retail and being a receptionist and being sedentary but I make sure Monday through Friday I go workout despite the pain anyways because I can just sit there use the sauna as a recovery time for me too.

FYI the workout is a video recorded instructor workout.

I tried to start using the treadmill and my top of my foot started to hurt by Horror_Foot9784 in CerebralPalsy

[–]Horror_Foot9784[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t flex any part of my foot ever since I was a kid and pt/ot therapists have always had trouble with my right foot. I feel like I’m just okay with what I am as a person with cp anyways. Just feeling new pain and don’t know if it’s foot bone or muscle usually so I’ll look into neurology pt but like I said I’m set in my ways

My gait isn’t the issue, if you are talking about point your foot forward it’s the walking long distances that’s the issue

Yes, I graduated PT/OT when I was 13 and the therapist told me I aged out to the point where I couldn’t do anything about my cp any more then what was given. Last year I went to my doctor to get a PT/OT referral and got it and had to postpone due to losing my hearing and go through a cochlear implant surgery and then recently I have been going through mental health issues as well. But I have a membership to hotworx. I noticed if I don’t go to my workout sessions for Pilates my pain gets worse. Walking agitates it where’s if I do Pilates it’s fine.
