Some relief...

OW that helped!

It has been many years since I went to a chiropractor, I had forgotten how much force they use to put those bones back in position...

He did remember me, he said, you look very familiar to me! So I had to fess up and tell him I used to reupholster his patient tables...and he said, OF course!  He did more small talking than he did adjusting...but It was ok.  

Got a huge crack out of the SI which was out as well as the L, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and my hip joint! The head of the femur....when he grabbed my leg twisted it then yanked...OMG a huge pop and some pain but it immediately felt better.  So basically my hip was out of place!!  So I gotta go back on Monday...and Im so happy he said all my problems are alignment issues..SO hopefully I will be able to walk normal again at some point...He allowed me to skip the therapy (heat/ice) that my insurance does not pay for and the xrays...because he said my description was so spot on for an SI-Joint misalignment that it was text book. 
So I have to ice for 20 minutes ever other hour!! I have been icing but not that often....so that's my assignment.  I hope the limp will go as the inflammation disappears...

I should not have been so stubborn about going but to be honest,...I was afraid.  NOT of the adjustment, but the what if he told me he can't help me? Then what? That was the big unknown. 

NOW I just hope it stays put...I know it's unstable, it's always given me some misery but it has never affected the leg/hip relationship...it's always been the pain in those little hollows of the back...

He told me after I closed my upholstery business, he and his wife bought a machine and started doing their own work tables!! Amazing. 

I told him I can not do upholstery anymore due to my hands least he try to force me back into it!! I had a lady try very hard to force me to do her chair when she learned I had returned to the area...I told her I had NO equipment...sold all of it, and she insisted I could figure out how to do it...I told her, please don't call me again!!

Imagine a mechanic with no tools? Same thing.
