Well, I've made it through baseball season, 80 games of umpire work thus far, and just one all-star American Legion game to go next week(July 30th).
So far the back has held out...although there are days I get a "feeling" or worry about it....and some other signs I do not like(tingling in feet, middle back ache, buttock pain, etc)...so far however, my motion remains about 95% of what it was this time last year....so I can't complain much.
The big test is coming...FOOTBALL! That is where the problems started last year....scrimmages begin in a couple of weeks....right now I'm looking a 40 dates, including some Recreation double headers....this will be the test. If I end up like last year, at least I know the injections are part of the solution.
As far as the Blood Pressure? Have not really been checking all the much...last week it was upper normal. Although I have to admit, my BP monitor is all over the charts, as I check it 5 times, using both arms at least twice.....it's been in the range of 120-140/70-80...all-in-all, if this is accurate, not a big problem, despite the amount of beer I drink during the hot weather....my check-up/physical is August 5th....so will know more then.
