Molly, have you learned MLD (manual lymphatic drainage) self-massage yet? There are YouTube videos demo-ing it. It's slow but quite easy. It really helped me when my LE flared up.
We're in Mildly Neurotic Town right now. Picked Gordy up from his gf's to take him to an appt., and ended up having to go to Immediate Care instead. Long story short, he officially has Type A flu. He didn't get his flu shot, but lest I get too cocky one of the strains against which this year's vax is ineffective is in the Type A group. Oh, joy. He took the first pill in our family emergency Tamiflu stash (then we got his own Rx filled), but I'd better not unless I either get a positive nasal swab too or develop clear symptoms. His case was dx'ed so early--cold sweat, nausea, headache, lightheadedness, pounding heart--that his temp is normal and he didn't get muscle aches yet...which is not to say he won't. I don't want to waste a pill if I don't feel any more than mildly queasy and very slightly headachy. Got into the early-voting polling place just under the wire--good thing I did, in case I'd be in no shape to handle the Primary Day fustercluck over at the church tomorrow.

Gordy's feeling a bit better but still taking it easy--he's added Jell-O to his preferred menu of the moment. I'm holding steady--sinus-y and drippy nose probably due to pollens more than anything else. We've been disinfecting surfaces, handles, doorknobs like crazy, washing hands a lot and using only paper towels to dry them.
Have my annual ophthalmologist visit & refraction tomorrow. Might have to decide which of my glasses are worth having the lenses replaced in case my prescription changes.

Stay safe, Iris--can you call a medi-car or HC-access taxi to get you & your rollator to the scan facility?
The world turned upside down this winter--the Northeast has gotten Chicago's weather.

Iris ..ugh ..nothing worse than kicking your toe !!! I love to be barefoot in the house , and it happens to me often ! In your pocket for your onco appointment !
Rgoossen..that's great ! Things are really starting to move along now !

iris, how was your appointment?

I don't go barefoot any more except in the shower or pool. Over the years, my toes have been viciously attacked by furniture, radiators, exercise machines, and even a wrinkle in a rug.
