Thanks for all the pro tips everyone! I do appreciate it! As a disclaimer - I want to mention that I will actually be getting some medical assistance soon both in network (Kaiser) and potentially someone that I'm in contact with who is an DPT/OCS in San Diego and a cyclist. Kaiser is kinda Meh with specialist/sports stuff IME but that's the most cost effective so I'll start there.
Who knows - maybe I'll come out of this with some more power if I do get some imbalance and firing issues sorted out! That would be neat. In the meantime I'm learning, being proactive, getting my exercise other ways (swimming) and making sure I stay healthy and lean.
