Finally yoga is back on, and not just hands free yoga either, full on downward facing dog yoga!! My hand is actually coping.

Started the #YogaWithAdrieneExpand the playlist for July, find it Here and honestly it couldn’t come quick enough, my back is so stiff, and neck too, it’s been hard to twist or look over the one shoulder all week. So I’m hopeful this will help free up the spine, as I’m getting so stiff from pain.

As the hips are still making the spine hard to live with and traditional meds aren’t working, I’m on Tramadol, Paracetamol, Etoricoxib and hot water bottles, I’m now seeking help from Sapphire Medical and With a view to trying Medical Cannabis. I don’t smoke and have no desire to vape, so I’m hoping THC and CBD oil can help instead. It’s a private service and you have to qualify (I do a few times over) so paid £50 for an appointment on Saturday 8th July and going on from there.

As the Psoas/Hip Flexor is proving difficult still though the hip is old now. These exercises are needed back in my routines.

I have to say while I toyed with the idea of a steroid injection in the psoas again, I’m currently suffering from the steroid injection in the CMC joint (thumb) as I’m getting horrendous hot flushes, and it’s been a game is it menopause? Or steroid? Or because I’m currently poorly. But over the last year or so, they had stopped with evening primrose oil, and only come back with the steroid in the thumbs so it’s pretty much ruled everything else out. So dare I say it, I need to return to single leg hip bridges to try and heal the psoas naturally??
