HI Benjamin,

my chiropractor recently told me that one side of mine is slightly weaker to the other side. I wasn't aware of it. I have lost a lot of my self regulatory feelings - like if I am getting hot/cold tired etc. She said that the weakness would be effecting my balance which is not the greatest. When I walk I often veer off to one side and also have trouble co-ordinating movements. My personal trainer was showing me a new exercise when in a crouch position - had to lift one hand and the opposite leg off the floor - couldn't do it until he actually touched the hand and the leg - was weird. I know some people would have difficulty anyway but I was always able to do things like that pre accident.

The chiropractor seems to think that she can help with the balance/weakness issue by getting things back where they should be - hopefully and then with the help at the gym I should get stronger.
