Today, i went for my first appointment for my physiotherapy... I was greeted by my physiotherapist, Sarah, a really sweet Indian lady with a deep voice... She was nice & gentle... I told her wateva prob I was having... checked my spine, did sme moves to knw where's my pain exactly & finally, she came back with a spine dummy or wateva they call it, & explained to me wat is the problem exactly... she told me I am having a slip disc & tat the disc is out & is affecting my nerves thus causing uneasy feeling down right to my legs & smetimes the shoulders...
Well, she taught me sme exercise & told me i could go for either regular physiotherapy or an operation which will b the last option... and den finally, she told me she gonna give me sme "spine extraction" if i'm not wrong... I didn't reali thought much wat was it about... so she showed me to another room... and i was sittin with 4 other old folks.. right... *sigh*
And den here comes the worst thing i tot was gonna hpn... a nurse asked me to lie on a bed which had 2 or segments, placed two pillows under my leg & one under my neck... ok, den she strapped me ard my hip & below my chest...she placed the nurse calling button near me... wat shocked me more was, she had this rope she tied to the bed & to the machine!!! I was so scared.. scared to death I nearly cried... I was lying der all alone in a cubicle wit no lights on & was staring at the ceiling why Bhagavan i hve to go thru all tis... i reali thought it's gonna b so painful... i cldnt stop thinking abt the pain i was gonna go thru...
Den Sarah, my physiotherapist, came in.. she looked at me & asked if i was scared.. i looked at her & smiled... she told me wat the machine gonna do is, it's gonna pull me so that the machine will pull my spine & give me temp relieve of pain.. ok, den the machine pulled me... der wasnt any pain but i cld feel & hear that my spine stretched... and so the machine will stretch & pull back my spine for 15mins... i was praying it will be over soon..
Finally it was over, and when i got off the bed, the pain was a killer! I cldnt walk & i had to hunch a little... the pain was travellin down to my right leg more den ever... finally Sarah came... She asked me if it was better...of cos not.. so she told me she wldnt give me tat treatment anymore... my next physiotherapy is nxt Mon.. haiz! i wonder wat they gonna ask me to do & guess wat? it's burning my pocket as well... i'm seriously broke... all those out der who owe me money, pls return me back cos i'm reali broke...
