720 yards in 23 minutes of swimming today.

Legs are bad, left forearm stiffening from typing.Will get urine sample done to R/O UTI tomorrow morning ...have a ride lined up for that.

Today I swam 720 yards in 22 minutes and did well, despite stiffening, s I was grateful.

Today I swam 1/4 mile in 13 minutes. I got out because I woke up 1 1/2 hours later than usual and DH was going to work soon.

I attribute the longer sleep to less pain— It seems odd that in 12 hours the Levaquan has already eliminated UTI pelvic pain, and reduced night time stiffening . That’s fast work....Walking more today too: but still way not what it was last month...hoping....

Today I swam 22 minutes 746 yards: a feat, since my legs have not been behaving well. At all...

Today I swam 800 yards in 22 minutes. So close to the 1/2 mile mark :) I think I swam faster. Yesterday was IVIG and i feel better from that infusion for sure.

Today I will beg for a doc order to r/0 UTI...

Painful spasm last night lateral part of lower leg, settled down with pressure, but pelvic pain rest of night. Waiting for UTI culture results. Horrible night sweat with dizziness hour before the spasm.

Despite it, I swam 740 yards in 22 minutes a few hours later... so far so good.

Today I had a spasm of the ankle at 3 am which resolved with putting pressure on it for 15 sec. I swam 773 yards 23 minutes 4 hours later....almost took Ativan but it resolved...

Today I swam 773 yards in 23 minutes. I have been swimming despite the stiffening in my feet while I swim, and the lower back pain. So far, so good.

I am so tired of the pain in the stiffening though. So tired of it.

I swam 800 yards in 23 minutes today. Then went to the produce stand. Came home and got fruit ready for a friend who was visiting. An hour visit durned into 80 minutes. I gotta be better about only doing an hour. It was so nice to see her. But, now My legs are worse. I gotta rest an hour before making salad dressing (easy) and a sauté shrimp dish, which is easy except the shelling is yucky and time consuming...I think I will skip taking out the trash to the shed from the shrimp until DHcomes home.

Resting now...wish I could walk the way I was walking before all the UTIs started in April.

I swam 800 yards today, went to produce stand and put the food away. Rested a bit, took Ativan at 10:00 am and then enjoyed a respite from SPS symptoms, the only think I still have is the side effects of the muscle relaxants of SPS.
