Painful evaluation

Originally posted 2022-04-18 22:36:34. I finally had the evaluation for physical therapy for my neck today. I get there and the lady gave me the questionnaire to fill out and it also had the sheet to fill out to show where you hurt. You know “circle where it hurts, draw a line where it hurts.” Except this was for low back pain 🤦🏼‍♀️. I had to remind her this was for cervical radiculopathy. She had…

The skeptic

Originally posted 2020-05-02 09:23:36. I was the skeptic when it came to CBD products. I have seen and heard it just like everyone else. People would swear by it. But, I just didn’t think it worked like that. That was until my best friend used the cbd massage melt by Pure Romance. She used it on her wrists, hands, shoulder, arms after driving 15 plus hours bringing a load of their belongings from Missouri. After…

I have constant pain throughout my body so not feeling pain is kind of…

Ok… warning for some this may be too much info for your liking. So… here I go. In the past couple weeks I have been having issues with several things. My left leg, groin, butt cheek, and top and bottom of my left foot. Then all of a sudden I started having issues with my bowels and bladder functions. My pain management doc had previously told me that if I had any changes to let…

Covid Massage

Originally posted 2021-04-28 09:00:00. I need a deep tissue massage from a Russian lady named Olga… At least she seems to know how to do it in the movies. I haven’t been able to get a true deep tissue massage in over a year. No offense to anyone who does them but the ones I have tried just don’t have enough pressure or whatever it is that seems to be missing. My chronic pain was…
