The Main Event

I love watching Olympic Gymnastics, and this year was no different! The showdown for the Team event was USA vs China. China won, with USA in 2nd and Russia in 3rd. The AA was next, another showdown but this time the top two spots would be USA vs USA.

Nastia Liukin came out on top, Shawn Johnson in 2nd and Yang Yilin from China in 3rd.

Nastia: Silver Team, Gold AA, Silver Bars, Bronze Floor, Silver Beam

Shawn: Silver Team, Silver AA, Silver Floor, Gold Beam

Zanaflex-less

Well, it's been 2 months without taking Zanaflex.. I hate not having it anymore, as it really helped with my spasticity. BUT, it was making my "good" arm very weak and useless.. I can't afford to have a 2 "bad" arms!

So now, without the drug, my arm is better (as the second EMG proved). NOW I am more spastic even with an increased dosage of Baclofen. Grrrrrr :(

Had my 4th round of Botox and for some reason this time they all hurt/burned while going in. Oh well, I just suck it up and deal as I know it's worth it in the long run.
