Physical Therapist before the first excercise: "You will hurt very badly later on today from what I am getting ready to do with you."
Me: ๐๐ฐ๐๐ฎ๐
When finished & all my bones & muscles had been tortured to their limit, she said: "I think you need to come 2x a week for 3 weeks. I will make you strong, but you will hurt in every part of your body. Take your pills. Do your excercises at home 2x a day, pain or not, or it will be worse when you come here"๐ฌ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐ญ๐คฃ
@Gramdma2011 I used to call my PT Torquemada. But the pain was worth it for me... avoided surgery. Good luck!! ๐
@Sheree Thanks. Mine is post spinal decompression & knee surgeries; ugh. Current is for back, but pain is still in knee as a result of back issues; ugh. Stopped for food; not cooking today; pain is coming!๐ I don't mind the therapy, just the pain associated w/it; hate taking pills, but am forced to...if I don't stay regular w/them (some days I skip) pain is doubled & return to pills. Hopefully therapy will eventually reduce the need for them.
@Gramdma2011 I feel ya! I hate pain!! I hope yours get controlled & is soon a distant memory. ๐
