Back

We were in Bali August 26 to 29 and I tried to surf one morning. I could hardly get on the board. At least not for more than a few seconds. Whether that's the result of my just having poor physical coordination or not, I don't know. What I do know is that at least one of my ankles started to hurt midway through the one-hour session.

I don't know if the surfing is related to the back discomfort I noticed within a few days. Or if that was the result of some Pilates move I did. The discomfort starts from the waist- or hip-line up to about a third of the back. At my last Pilates last Wednesday, I didn't do the backward cool-down stretch because I felt the discomfort when I tried. I think the discomfort has subsided by now but I just checked and it is when I bend over backwards that I feel the discomfort.

Will see Doctor Lorenzo on Thursday this week (Sept. 16). Mechelle, my Pilates instructor, will probably join us.
