I am not your therapist and cannot give you specific advice. Please call your board-certified physical therapist (you can get a list of therapists from http://www.apta.org). Client stories are based on true events and, unless I have permission to use names, I have changed any personal identifying information. Resemblance to any person alive or dead is purely coincidental. Believe me, it's not all about you. However, if you are my friends or family members, you'll likely show up in my stories. I express my opinions, freely. They may not match yours - that's ok.
