Umm...that was Cloudy who doesn't do her exercises

I have looked into the possibility of Yoga, but wanted to make sure I wouldn't cause a problem. Sciatica scares me and I don't want to do anything that makes it worse. When you can't stand up past a 90 degree angle for three days, you don't want to do anything that might make that more permanent.

no doubt about it, i have been in that position for weeks, almost 10 years ago. certainly the range-of-motion core set of exs' is a must do, every day, or whatever circuit rehab puts you on. the reason you can do(even limited) yoga right along with it is because the moves are all slow, with concentration on body position and breathing - you bend or stretch ONLY as much as you can W/O any pain. period. no go for the burn, you're not even going for the hot,lol it took me over three weeks of just trying, thinking about body position, breathing. breathing has got to be even, steady, full. you set the pace. work in total privacy. you need about the amount of space in your average apt living room with the coffee table pushed to the side.

As to the order of cold medicines...I like to take them in order of the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, blue, green, indigo, then violet. It's pretty that way! (you nutter!) I say, here i was, wasting my time reading labels and ingredients!lol in that case, purple and gold has always been my favorite, here's to chromatic creativity!
