PT update

[duriyah]

I have now completed four full weeks of physical therapy; this is my fifth week. The therapist rates your success based on your stated goals. My goals were to be able to stand for half an hour without pain, and walk for an hour without increasing pain. (That's a minimal goal. I would ideally like to be able to give an hour-long massage once a week

Wow, kudos to your therapist for telling you to seek additional help. Lately I've felt like doctors and their counterparts just want you to keep doing whatever gets them a paycheck. At least you know she really is trying to help and not just insisting you keep doing the same things uselessly. I hope the orthopaedist can help.

She told me she couldn't legally continue to treat me without another prescription from the doc, so they must have some sort check system in place so they don't keep charging you/your insurance.
