Anthurium

Floral Friday / Black and White Weekend / Garden Affair

I spotted this anthurium in a medical office. I was there to get help for hip pain, which has gotten worse lately. The provider set me up with an appointment with an orthopedic doctor and also prescribed a short course of prednisone. 

The medication helped with the pain, which had gotten so bad I could barely crawl out of bed in the morning. Unfortunately it has digestive side effects so I will be happy when I finish the package on Monday. 

I am going to physical therapy twice a week. It does not seem to be helping much but I realize building strength takes a long time.

    Love the red! Hope you get over side effect of meds, they are yet another pain! But living with chronic pain does suck the life out of one. I hope you can get relief with strengthening. I have a friend who get massage of her sciatic nerve from her PT. Of course what works for her has no bearing on your pain.

    I love anthuriums; the red spates last a long time. They really brighten their surroundings during winter. I hope you feel better soon.
