Scoliosis

Dear Readers,

I have been feeling really low since the last month. Maybe it is because of the doctoral results and tests. Now a days I am visiting a physiotherapist as I was given a referral by the orthopedist. Apparently,there exists some kind of an irregularity with my Spine which is causing severe back pain and other connecting problems. Basically, my anatomy is twisted, abnormal you may say.

Mentally, I have been thoughtful regarding my physical health and my weaknesses. My breathing difficulty is due to the tightened muscles around my rib cage which in turn is caused by my the curved spine. I am not depressed or sad. It is just that I hate being told that I am weak. Maybe it is my ego working. Tomorrow my parents are going to order orthopedic supplements for my left foot as my left leg is an inch shorter than my right due to my rotated hip bone.

Besides having hypothyroidism, coping with such muscle aches is a big hassle in my everyday life. When difficulties arise regarding trivial daily activities, that is when I feel the worst. Having hardship bending and sitting too long during lectures is just a part of the whole puzzle.

I am not going to blame my hormonal issues for my weight gain, but will blame myself for not being healthy and taking care of myself. I should have started this a long time ago!

However, I know that it is never too late. I have started exercising and will soon start with a fitness and diet plan when I join my University again.

Besides my health routine, I will also be starting my skin and hair routine as I have been off-track for too long now. My confidence have lowered and I hate being the way I am now. I know that I can make it.

This is the start of a new journey in my life - a journey to fitness and well being.
