Physical-Cognitive Ever so gradual decline. On disability from 35 year nursing career.I started by keeping journals. My daily observations, appointments,summaries, status.Writing things down helps incorporate them into your reality. Nobody Wants to be disabled. Denial comes easy.

Significant other, Fred ❤️ in my case.
Neuro Team I can easily communicate with, an MS Center.
Having a home, disability income, insurance, medications, pill organizer, Routine,mail order,Rest when I need to because no point in fighting Self.#autoimmune

#MedicalCannabis products when available have been very beneficial to me. Prohibition in one state 🇺🇸 and leniency in another leads to paranoia and confusion. No matter how You feel about Cannabis, I’m telling you pain, spasms, depression are helped. Strains are all different.

Technology: Started using @Apollo_Neuro device to balance my nervous systems. Paired with @ouraring to monitor my progress.

I have seen my HRV go up since starting to use @Apollo_Neuro and @ouraring Together I can see the effects interventions have had on my status. I also did PT, learned Myofascial Release taping and doing Epsom salt w charcoal soaks.HRV⬆️Resiliency ⬆️.

Also using @Lumosity brain training. Interesting, fun, not too hard to do. Informative. See trends.
