Hi Laura,
I had another repetitive dream that I was hiking/backpacking in the mountains and in a tropical forest. I can't even carry a pack with water which is heavier. Then the dream shifted to me being in the wild (well, chaparral shouldn't count!) with my rolling daypack over uneven terrain and how lame this was b/c I couldn't get anywhere. I might risk surgery precisely to get back to this and especially to work out for not doing so is dangerous.
I take tramadol every day and munch NSAIDs a lot - hoping that Prilosec will protect my stomach lining. Sometimes I take Vicodin which is gross.
You're high powered and subject to v. high expectations. I'm glad you're grateful more for what you have. Running uphill like how Reinhard Messner used to train!!
Wishing you well, Allan
