What if you don’t know what to ask? From the moment I was ‘fitted’ for the boot I have to wear while my heel heals (say that five times fast!), I have been given the opportunity to have a glimpse into the understanding of what it feels like to be a patient. And I am […]

In an article (1) in yesterday’s NY Times, we learn that “The FDA just yesterday approved a drug to treat people with a serious form of eczema, a potential breakthrough for people who have suffered for years without relief.

“It’s a stress fracture of your calcaneous and you’ve got to wear a boot for 6 week. No running. No cycling except on a stationary bike with the boot on. No swimming because you’d have to push off the wall and that could be risky. But you can do upper body strength training.” That was […]

It may not add up to 100, but if you know what the context is, it adds up in another way. The numbers refer to my body fat percentage and the percent of calories I eat that come from fat. Last week, I visited a local facility, BodySpec, to have my body fat measured with […]
