I wish I was one of those strong people who could go to Physical Therapy and be very brave. However, my therapy is rather different from most, as I am having Dry Needle Therapy to get my muscles to contract and release.
This therapy is painful and I found that Tuesday’s therapy knocked me on my…bottom! Wow! It really hurt.
I called Jack on my way home and told him I would arrive at 2:20 and he should have a stiff drink ready for me. Which he did.
Every time I stopped to relate my experience and pain, he stopped me and told me to drink more.
After that, I took an hour-long nap. And when I woke I was feeling okay. Just okay.
Dinner is frozen lasagna for Jack and Cauliflower Pizza for me. All easy peasy.
I’m working hard with the Physical Therapist because I want to be well. I want my pain level down below 4. I want my life back.
I hope that by tomorrow morning (Wednesday) I will be feeling worlds better.
Fingers crossed!
it seems a little experimental but i know nothing about it aside from what you have told me. i really hope it helps.
Sounds painful, but if it ultimately helps, PT is worth the effort. You’ve got this.
Ouch! I wonder if it would be ok to tame some pre-treatment extra strength Tylenol to ease the discomfort?
