For those that may not know, I had some "bodywork" done recently. No, there was nothing wrong with my truck or Rv, the body that was worked on was mine :) The repairman did an excellent job and it would seem the repairs were successful (thanks Dr. Shane Barton). I have been sitting , sleeping and generally living in my recliner since the second of February and I am going stir crazy!
I did leave the recliner and house to go to physical torture twice already. Those were interesting trips. The first was easy enough, all I had to do was lay there and let the PT move my arm in all directions while watching me wince and make painful faces. Now he did a little of that on the second visit, but then he hooked me up to a rope pulley, a handle in each hand, then had me torture myself by pulling my left arm above my head! Those people are sadistic. I cannot believe they talk me into torturing myself and then I even pay them lots of money to do it! Oh well, as I have said earlier, oh the humor of a complicated mind...lol.
Well I have been sitting around the house for nearly three weeks now and you would think it would be a sort of preview of what retirement would be like. I kind of messed that up by setting up my home computer system to remotely connect with the servers at work and enabling me to work at home (man I dedicated). I don't think this absence from the office is a fair indicator of what retired life would be like, especially since I couldn't get off my rear bumper and do anything much! I guess in the next couple of years, I will just have to try the real thing instead :)
Until next time friends... God bless us all

PT may hurt, but it is worth it in the long run.
Do the PT because it will greatly help in a more full healing. The pain in pt will be worth the healing in the future.
Take care!
You know, I remember making a similar comment to a doctor after he worked on me. In my case, he was a Chiropractor, and I told him after the treatment that, "This is the first time I ever paid to get beat up."
Thoughts are with you. Keep up the PT or you will suffer later.
