He nearly KILLED me- I would come home from there in so much pain I'd have to take Vicodin and soak in a hot bath. Before you agree to PT, I'd want to make sure that the therapist knew what all they were dealing with as far as your symptoms go.

Hi Lailavia, and everyone else, Lailavia, your story is MY story to all but the I have C5/C6, C7,C8 disk problems but man I have been thru almost everything everyone has talked about !! I am attempting Therapy for the third time, and I am so glad that you posted this warning because this just happended to me not to long ago that I got "hurt" from someone not knowing enough about TOS Now it seems that the therapist I have now is better knowledged .

(which just got denied for the third time...still fighting tho...) This site and the people are a God send , so make sure you stay with this forum...Good Luck too..
