Looks like it's back to PT for me. Only two things can keep me sane during this...knitting and crocheting. Unfortunately, I can do neither at the moment.
Well, it seems as if I'm on my way back to physical therapy. I was there back in March, and (I will not mince words!) it was hell.
Let me explain a bit. I was hit by a mini-van about 7 years ago. I was not in a car at all. I was hit as a pedestrian in downtown Chicago, at lunchtime in front of many, many people--some of which I knew. And, it happened right in front of a cop. Luckily, I did walk away, albeit painfully. My neck was hurt especially, but really my entire left side felt horrid.
They never caught the guy.
The luck I'm about to describe is almost too awful to believe, but it's true. I went to PT a couple of months ago for my neck. I got through it, and I learned a lot. I felt so much better!
So why go back?
Because my lower back has three herniated disks, and it's their turn to throw a tantrum. The pain shoots down my leg and back up to my neck--again! Now, it's causing migraines on the left side of my head and searing pain down my left arm.
I'm really not sharing this to complain; far worse things could have happened. I just wanted to let you know what's going on. I'll get through it--I did once already!
This time, however, I can't fall back on my crafts, as my left arm is screaming. Guess I’ll just have to find the knitters/crocheters and talk about it, instead. :o)
