PT retesting report
Good news is: there is progress since the last time we did these tests a month ago.

Good news is: there is no indication that I am hitting a plateau and will not continue to get better from here.

Bad news is: we're scheduling out at least six weeks' more PT with a retest after that, and probably at least a few more sessions after that. So the dizzy, the falling, the incapacity for doing simple household tasks: we expect this to last a noticeable time longer.

Where's the turbo button on this damn thing?

Yiyiyi.

I'm sorry it doesn't go faster.

Your good news is good news, though - both of them, big time.

Progress is great! Progress cheers one up! But _six weeks_ is a real drag. *Sending happier thoughts*

As a friend once said: 'Keep smiling - you know how much it annoys them!' *hugs*

I'm glad there is progress! (Bad invisible turbo button, no cookie.)

Yay for good news!

I know it is bad news that you are looking at a couple more months of this, but at least "2 more months" is better than "Um. I dunno."

In fact, it's approximately, "two more months, counting the six weeks and the retest, and then we dunno." So it's not as though we have information that I'll be done at the end of this. Just that I'm unlikely to be done sooner, in the professional's estimate.

Yay for good news!


... I remember computers with "turbo" buttons. In practice, that was the button one pressed to slow down the blindingly fast 33MHz machine to the 5 or 8 Mhz that one's software or peripherals wanted. Still, I see what you mean, and wish there was a way for you to speed up the process.

Hooray for progress! If I hear tell of a vertigo dissipation turbo button installer, I will get their business card for you.

Hooray for progress. Boo for slowness. Will gladly help you look for the turbo button. And thing warm fuzzy thoughts in your direction. (Hugs too)

"think" not "thing". *sigh* but you know what I meant. (another hug)

I find it extremely Fredly that you used the comment editing ability to correct but not to erase evidence of your initial mistake.

That is good news, but oh so slow. Turbo buttons would be nice.

I'm glad of the progress. I hope that you will get a really nice birthday present from that direction. Let me know if you need more rosemary shortbread. (It can be made with butter, too, if that would be nice.)

I'll keep an eye out for any stray turbo buttons. Until then, umm, yeah. Keep doing what you can do, I suppose.
