Default Physical Therapy Evaluation yesterday

Well they said I do have diminished sensation on my Left arm. and diminished deep tendon reflexes bilaterally (c5-c7/c8 (c8 nerve)). I also have bad posture. During the manual muscle tests I have good flexion and abduction and I am significantly weaker on my left.

I could do 60 lb on my right and only 45 lb on my left (even accounting for me being right handed, this is significantly lower <--according the the PT evaluator).

Rotation and sidebend (of neck) also need improvement and some of it might be because my muscles and tendons are really tight

Anyway, that's the latest update. Going to try to be doing PT 2-3 times a week for at least the next 4 weeks.
