Needing some info

Originally posted 2017-09-13 14:30:01. Has anyone had pelvic floor physical therapy? Know anyone that has had it? Can anyone tell me a little more about it? I can look it up on the internet all I want but hearing someone else’s point of view would give me a better understanding. I have never of it before my doctor’s appointment on Monday with a uro-gynecologist. Since I’ve had a hysterectomy well things inside “dropped” ~ it…

Other day another holler

Originally posted 2022-04-21 13:39:22. This is an update to my Monday post painful evaluation. It’s Thursday afternoon at 1:11pm. I’m sitting in my recliner with an ice block unevenly situated on my cervical spine best way I know how. I have been feeling semi miserable since Monday and it just seems as if the guy irritated the shit out of something in there and it’s not getting any better. It sucks because I felt no…

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…

TMI?

Originally posted 2023-03-02 14:22:38. 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…

Physical start

Originally posted 2023-01-26 19:32:00. let me tell you something…. I started physical therapy yesterday and ughhh… the doc said I needed to do the “exercises” 5 out of 7 days a week. I know I had 2 back surgeries last year and my body reminded me of that too. I think my body from my last life sent a message too. I know I said previously that there is an upside to pain… just letting…

Needling

I tried some dry needling today. We don’t know how much and what exactly it will help, but it’s worth a try. He put needles in my leg and in the bottom of my foot. The one that went in my foot was definitely felt lol. The others weren’t really bothersome at all. I keep having issues with the front of my ankle. I have quite a bit of scar tissue in there, so I’m…

Is this vengeance?

Yesterday’s physical therapy was a little tougher than other sessions. More specific… they had me picking up little pegs with my feet/ toes and putting them in a pan. That was alot f’n harder than I thought it would be. I had done marbles with my feet but this… this was on a whole other level. I asked the therapist about the numbness that’s still there. He mentioned that when some of it comes back…

It’s Back Again

Originally posted 2019-10-25 11:00:14. I had to go see a new neurosurgeon. They needed new MRI, CAT, Xrays, and all the work. Done most of that. I started physical therapy yesterday. Funny thing is she is the same physical therapist my husband had for his knee. So working with her was easy. Now that I have had the new films I am eager to see the surgeon to know whether or not they will be…

Scar Tissue

Originally posted 2020-11-16 09:00:17. Since I haven’t been able to get an appointment with my favorite massage therapist since the beginning of 2020 I had to find something to help. I won this Wonder Maxi massage gun in one of Adoption First Animal Rescue’s fundraising raffles. I started working on areas that never seem to get enough time. My midsection, my stomach. I have had so many surgeries and alot of them have been in my…
