New Suxs Thread

Phys. therapy still sucks. The e-stem is great but the stretching she wants me to do is to compress my lower back and put pressure on the pinched nerve...and to stretch out my legs and abdomen so that I tear the muscles/ligaments and tendons. Three more weeks of torture...and she is also telling me there is no such thing as nerve pain.

I need to find a tai chi class.

can you find an osteopathic doctor? they might be able to loosen you up in a more gentle manner. tho your probably not tearing actual ligaments and tendons, but it may feel like that.

I'm probably not but it sure feels like it, although I do wonder when there is bruising left from stretching. I see a new doctor on the 8th of August. I'm hoping she will send me to an osteopath, along with taking a new set of X-rays and MRI of my spine, because it feels like I've really got something going on there, not just muscular, but nerve damage. I've been through this when the discs in my neck slipped.

hopefully its something that just needs slipped back into place.

you ever have one of those projects that keeps going wrong? the hair goes sticky, you try to sharpie dye the hair and it just makes a mess all over the doll, you try to take out the marks with acne cream and it bleaches the color out of the vynel but not the marks?

I hope so. I think a chiro might be better...and some massage therapy.

Yes. I hate projects like that. Was this a personal project or a commission?

personal, and luckily on one of the cheaper monster high dolls too. so its not a big financial loss if I have to toss it all out in the end. just annoying.
