update on the back

Saw a new Dr yesterday who was referred by my primary care. Did a thorough exam, measuring bones and checking joints (much better exam than anyone else has done). First comment was how messed up my right hip joint was... After about 35-40 mins of all kinds of tests/stretching/measuring/poking/prodding... he gave me some "adjustments" which ( Read more... )

Excellent that you got some relief! I hope that it continues.

Thanks... I'll take any kind of relief that I can get :-) I hope it continues over the next few weeks which would mean a return to full mobility.

Do you think they would allow you to integrate massage?

So glad you found a doc that works for you!

Next step yoga!

Thank You!
I will ask.. there aren't many places around here that offer any kind of alternative stuff like that or even acupuncture but I think it would absolutely help unlock this pain in the arse muscle groups.

Flexibility was something he mentioned.... not unusual from someone 43 though, so I know it can be improved.

You're 43? *snort*

Excellent!!! Hopefully this Doc can fix you right up!

BTW...my torture continues. The antennas for my new radio arrived today. The radio has not even shipped yet. GRRR!!!

Thanks, I hope he can continue the progress made... Its Sat morning and probably feeling as good as I have in a year or more, sans meds.... This is a HUGE improvement.

HAHAHA, I suspect you have been bitten by the bug. It happens VERY quickly and once it takes hold, you'll really start playing and having fun. I know how it is waiting for gear, and it is absolute torture, but oh, so much fun when it does arrive. Let us know when it gets there and you have a chance to crack open those boxes and how the chatter is in the area.

Oh, good news! :)

What kind of dr is it?

He is a D.O. with some specific training in Rehabilitation and a couple years of school for doing "adjustments" which were a total of about 6-10 (lost count) but all were very different than what had previously been done.
