I just thought of something..... while the manipulation really isn't working... I streatched (a few days ago) and rember a wierd sound sort like the sound your joints make when you "pop" them, but it wasn't a "pop" noise. Could that sound I have heard been a tear wich is a probably an obvious sign of desinegration. (I had a friend, who had a shunt that broke into pieces, so I assume it can happen.)
Please let me know, because it still is uncomfortable...
