Quarantine 🤦🏼‍♀️

It has been almost three weeks since I have had my exosome stem cell infusion. It has been a tough three weeks. I have been tired and emotional which is something to be expected. I can't say that I am walking amazing or there has been some life-altering change, but I can say that I feel more "alert." I am very happy that I got two immune-boosting treatments before the virus scare (exosomes and IVIG). This week I am going to be able to start doing more of my regular strenuous exercises. I am very thankful that I do not go to a gym and I see my trainer because I can keep working out for as long as my dad still is letting me go out with the coronavirus. I had to stop my hyperbaric treatments because of the circumstances, but they will start again as soon as the world goes back to normal. I don't want to say that this treatment didn't work because I definitely feel better than I did before I started, but I can't say that I am walking how I want to. This doesn't mean that I will stop trying treatments or doing what doctors say but I'd be lying if I said that I'm not disappointed. This has been a good time for me to slow down and let my body rest, to use exercise equipment at home and appreciate the little things. I have learned a lot from this experience and am going to try to fasting for a week at least once a month, it is a really good way to reset your body and mind. Hopefully, I keep seeing small improvements even if they are as simple as mental clarity.
