update physical therapy

I forgot to mention in my pros and cons post that I used to gag alot and feel like i was going to throw up. not anymore :-)

physical therapy is going well. About 4 more weeks. The therapist said in a few weeks I can go swimming at the Y again. yay!

I saw the doctor at school yesterday. I told him about my hypermobility and he took me seriously! He was actually shocked that the doctors didn't pick up on my chiari right away. Well he used to be an orthopedic surgeon. He said this is something I have to live with and that surgery and physical therapy doesn't really help. But he will add the physical therapy to my prescription for my joints. He said I wasnt too bad. My elbows wrists and fingers along with my shoulders are the bad areas. But my knees and ankles are pretty good. But I do have flat feet. I asked him what to do about it and he said that he has flat feet too and you have to learn tricks to walk properly and avoid the pain. Pretty much what I am doing already. So, yay.

I guess that was a confirmation of diagnosis right?

I took my tramadol the other night and had a rebound yesterday. I was in alot of pain. I felt nauseous all day and sick. So no more tramadol.
