Yea Art my back/hip problem is all better, it got worse after MF, I missed most of the summer layed up,one week my wife had to bring me to ER 3 times for pain.
I couldn't bend to the left at my hip and I was all crooked. My chiro said I was all done, he didn't want to work on me when It got really bad, a visit to another Chiro was the same.
I had scans, mri's xrays. Went to one doc after another, they all said I had a 2 inch difference in my leg length. The orthopedic surgeon even said your leg is short and you have scoliosis, didn't anyone ever tell you this?? Ah No, I was never like this........ you just didn't notice.....your all set.
I'm what???? I cant bend to my left.... yes but you can bend foward, backward and to the right, you can lead a perfictly normal life! Yeah, Unless I need something on my left!
Also my left leg didnt have feeling below the knee and my knee would buckle from time to time, so I was depressed.
Same thing happened over and over untill I went to a nero sugoen, I told her my leg wasn't always short and I walked around fine, she believed me :shock: She said I'll hsve to go back to physical theropy to get my hip right, then she can continue.
I had already done a shit ton of PT with no help, I wasn't very confident.
Well this time I went to PT in town near my shop, Jim the theropist knew me pretty well, he knew I did some body building shows and I was symetrical in the past.
He has me lay down on the table on my back and he puts a thumb on each ankle and tells me to look, it was freaky it looked like a 3 inch difference.
He has me lbend my leg at the knee, while he held it still, he told mt to try and thrust my knee toward the clock on the wall.
Then he puts his thumbs on my ankels and says look The legs were even!!!!!! He said get up and walk, I said it can't stay even just like that :shock: He said why not?
I got up and walked, felt like i was walking on clouds, I was shocked to say the least, Jim was too, he said it was bazar.
I said how long ago could you have done this Jim, he says "you don't want to know"
So I can work again 8)
