My body is not making this easy

I am 100% committed to getting off medication by the end of the year. I am going to do it. My body while seemingly happy about the changes I've made in my life, is starting to resist a little bit.

First it was shin splints over the weekend. For the first time EVER, I had shin splints while on the treadmill. They were so bad that I got off the treadmill and stretched for a few minutes and then got back on. I was doing fine for a while, ad then when I went to speed up, they came back. I decided to cut my losses and go for a longer period of time at the slower speed.

On Monday when I went to the gym while stretching, I felt something pop in my left leg. Nothing major, I was able to continue stretching and jog my usual 5k. This morning when I woke up, I was in pretty intense pain on the right side of my back. I don't know what caused this, but now, 15 hours later, it's still bothering me just lying down and excruciating when I try to walk. I didn't go to the gym today.

My numbers on the high side higher than they have been lately, peaking at 150 2 hours after eating, but under an hour later, I can be 80. I had much better control of my blood sugar on days when I get a good workout at the gym. I can only hope tomorrow will be a better day.
