Weirdly, I tensed up while reading this. I was expecting a bigger shoe (boot, maybe?) to fall, like the pain was going to result in something a whole lot worse. I found myself doing those breathing exercises LOL and letting out a sigh of relief. So glad you're able to put your hands behind your head now. Also, Ryan sounds amazeballs.

I found myself arousing pity all through this note,🤦‍♀️but felt relieved at the end of it that you sail through.That reminds me of an inflammation in my right arm back then in college.Indeed,only the patient can tell,it’s always exhausting and breathe-taking.

I've done breathwork and I spend half the time laughing at myself and half the time loving the experience. It's fascinating and terrifying.

I deal with muscle pain, too. So this really hits home.
