    Massages were… interesting. I did 3 years of biweekly PT. The massage part was the only time I felt anything impact where I actually hurt. I can replicate that with the knob of a baseball bat while lying on the floor and a tennis ball… kinky. Don’t get me started on the 3ft long 8in diameter foam roll. The best part of PT was the revolving door of new interns.

    My vision is likely mostly hydration due to being a hardcore cyclist and the way it impacts my water retention and sodium balance as I’ve tapered and slowly degraded.

    I think it is likely smart to get the plastic in the eye thing thought, if you can manage. My pain baseline is so high that my ability to focus on anything technical is limited. Relieving the strain on my vision using my hacked glasses can substantially extend how long I can read something technical before I’m no longer functional. Probably the same for most people. My brain can compensate, but doing so has a cost that could be useful elsewhere.

    How long you and the SO been posting nudes? Like it? Going well?

      massages should be a human right, in some cases they can improve your day by 80% especially because they are more sensitive, on the other hand in physiotherapy the relief is not momentary but progressive, the results take years to be seen, it is even thought in this later way because it allows a safe and effective rehabilitation without forcing the body beyond its limits, that is why they recommend not to stop the treatment and to combine it with other direct relief treatments, such as massages or hot kerosene (which is like a kind of candle wax applied in heat, but it is for medical use so do not grab the candles from your house and put them in a pot because it will not help you haha).

      although ‘concentrating’ is necessary at some point it hurts, maybe it’s time to start a more sensory and friendly stage with your body, not forcing it and understanding that there are new times, it could be interesting to let go by the sensitive is difficult but as a cyclist you know that at some point you get there with patience … and water, always water…you will improve (L)
