What's your HEALTHCON?
Like DEFCON which states a military condition, your HEALTHCON is your Health Condition.
This might be a bit neurotic but I look @ my health condition like a DEFCON military status.
It is something that I pay attention to, and treat very seriously.
HEALTHCON5 - Perfectly fit, zero medications, zero ailments, not actively treating any condition.
HEALTHCON4 - Good health, but dealing with sleeping issues, ocassional mild fatigue, slight weight issues, 1 or 2 ailments or conditions, such as acid reflux, slight depression, stomach and digestive issues, addictive issues (phone/drinking/video games) back pains, or other chronic conditions. These issues are more NAGS and reduce quality of life, but don't necessarily stop you from living your life.
HEALTHCON3 - OK health but dealing with mild to moderate obesity, chronic fatigue and/or insomnia, several ailments and conditions often requiring several medications. Often sick. Sometimes your health conditions stop you from doing what you want.
HEALTHCON2 - Poor health, dealing with moderate to morbid obesity, many ailments, including aches/pains, trouble walking, struggling to do the basics in life like climbing a flight of stairs, jogging for 1 minute. Medications are part of life. Sickness is a regular, monthly occurrence.
HEALTHCON1 - Sickly. Everything above but worse, chronic, and your life is actually in danger from heart attack, stroke, or any other ailment, such as COVID or the flu.
For most of 2022, I considered myself at HEALTHCON5, in perfect health and not dealing with any type of ailments. Everyone in my life who is my age are struggling at HEALTHCON 2 to 4.
However for the last two months I've been dealing with a nagging itch on my foot that would not go away. At first I thought it was athletes foot or something like that, but the itch did not respond to any type of treatment, including fungal treatments.
This itch, caused me to go to HEALTHCON4 and it was annoying the heck out of me.
So for the last 2 months, it has been my objective to SOLVE this itch and rid myself of it. My wife who is a nurse said it was likely neurological or nerve related since intense scratching only delivered subtle relief, and the itch seemed to be deep in the foot, not on the skin's surface.
My home is full of all types of therapeutic tools, from a massage gun, to an infared sauna, to a ultrasound tools and electric stimulators, to a hot tub.
NOTHING WORKED.
And the itch was starting to effect my work, and my sleep.
Guess what solved it?
This did.
I'm not sure to the exact modality, but doing this morning and night must have did some type of nerve stimulation and I went from hours of itches per day, to just minutes.
I'm back at HEALTHCON5.
Interesting, I spent most of my 30's and early 40's between a mix of HEALTHCON 3 and 4, never getting to 5.
So, what's your current HEALHCON?
What were you for 2022 as an average?
What's the plan to get to 5? Is there a plan? Or is it, "Oh, this is just how things are."
