Got a physio appointment for tomorrow {Fri} the ortho referred me and said he wanted me to have the same physio that I had before {few years ago}

    Chalk one up for beaurocracy! Isn't it a blessing (and a minor miracle :wink: ) when they get things right? I hope the physio will be helpful and that the pain clinic can come up with some new ideas and suggestions. Remember to let us know how you get on, yes? DD

    Hi DD
    Took a lot of chasing but in the end I've got it sorted.
    Know nothing about the pain clinic but the physiotherapist is the one I had before. Remember when I had the acupuncture?. {as well as physio}
    We got on well.....after he discharged me he kept in touch for quite a while to find out what was happening with me.
    So no problems with that.
    I will let you know
    How are you? You coping well now with walking and holding sticks?
    Got a switch stick now. I looked at the cruthes but not sure about the arms and whether they would stay on properly.
    Love

    To be honest walking is a miserable activity, I still can't hold my crutches or use the rollator so I'm wobbling around with one or two sticks and feeling very insecure. No matter, who said that life should be easy and pain-free? :wink: I think it's rather lovely that you're seeing the physio you already know - that'll save an awful lot of explaining! DD

    Hi Barbara
    I was discharged from physio as well because they thought that was as far as they could go.
    The only thing is a lot of things have happened since then.
    We'll see

    Love
