More Physio (by sarah)
Yesturday saw more physio for me including some light massage to try and get the muscles out of spasm - apparently the muscles in my back have been in continous spasm for at least four months which is supposed to be absolutly exhusting :/ I have two weeks of the current excersises and gentle massage and if the muscles haven't started to ease up its back to the doctors for muscle relaxents.
Also though previously they couldn't find any nerve damage apparently there is but its on a different set of nerves to those that do the reflexes which is why it wasnt showing up. This is why I have descensatized skin and why I sometimes loose control of legs and stuff. However the nerve issue is probably from inflamation in the opening in the vertibrea where the nurve comes out and it is sort of putting pressure on it so that the signals are all just dulled rather than having complete lose - this is actually a bit of a pain as it means its alot harder to pin point exactly where the trouble is.
I have to say that I am very very sore after this session and am not looking forward to more indefinate pain. On top of that my pain killers give me headaches so I am a mega grump at the moment.
