More ouch.

It's moving around some, so I think that's good. If one thing were broken, that would be the only thing that hurts, right?

Last few days the pain at the iliac crest has settled down. I ran a couple of miles on Saturday. IT band hurt. Hip hurt. Groin hurt. Finished.

After that run I decided to keep the appointment I have with the doc on Friday. Don't really know what he can tell me that I don't already know. Maybe it's wishful thinking.

Despite all the stretches and exercises I've been doing (except for the two days after I pulled an intercostal), all I'm getting is more pain in my lower back.

I'm too old for this.

Tried another 2 mile test today at lunch. It actually went better than Saturday. The only part that hurt was the ITB. That has me slightly encouraged but I'll still go on Friday and see if doc can offer anything besides what I'm already doing. Maybe some PT on the ITB and lower back.

Finished the rear brakes on Abby. Replaced the broken hood release cable. Replaced the grommet for the hood prop bar. Noticed that Mrs. Dave's car was pulling a little to the left after doing her rear brakes. Guess that caliper will have to be replaced. That'll be a job for Friday, since she needs it for work on Saturday.

Got an email from my sister yesterday morning. Dad had emergency gall bladder surgery. I talked to him last night and he was in good spirits.

jeez louise. I recommend fast-forwarding to the part where you're healthy and kicking butt again.

I have been assigned a DO (doctor of osteopathic medicine) as my primary physician because my last doctor quit (I was not explicitly named as the reason, but it was clearly implicated.) My sham medical system doesn't allow one to choose one's doctor. Just one less thing to worry about, Forrest said. I hope you get an answer. And that all the other stuff settles down. I prefer "went for blazing long run and then caulked the entire house for no particular reason" dave. I hope he comes back soon.

That was my favorite Dave, too. Gotta find him somehow.

I feel you on the low back stuff.   It affects everything. 

I am glad you are keeping the doctor’s appointment.  I hope they tell you something useful.
