I have begun my blog to raise awareness to the chronic disease Endometriosis. I would like my blog to be a source of information on all aspects of this disease - whether that be surgery, treatment or the day-to-day aspects of living with this condition. I have created a Video Blog to work along side this to discuss a whole variety of issues.

Gym time is good for you.

This week I am going to try and get back to gym a little bit... I really really miss the gym so much! And I long for a nice swim or a run...

With the problems I am having around my heart, I have to be careful with the cardio things. With a resting pulse at 117 bpm, I am not allowed to over-exert myself until my ECG has Aiken place. But, mild exercise. So walking on the treadmill. Light cycling. Small amount of swimming is ok. I will naturally listen to my body and not push it too much.

Exercise makes me feel so much better about myself. Plus it is good for the pain... It is tough when the pain is so bad you don't want to move at all!! But it does help to keep moving when you can. I am no where near the standard I was once at. But keeping myself fit and healthy is all
I ask for at the moment... So David Lloyd near me have an amazing gym!! All the mod cons and a stunning health suite too. With sauna and steam. So I shall be investing in a membership there.

Can hardly wait!!!
