Hi Sue,
I don't see a rehab specialist. The closest to that would be a physical therapist in this county and I tried that but didn't like this clinic. Most specialist that I need are too far away to travel. And besides what can they do for me that I can't do for myself? I'm tired of being bounced around like a rubber ball.
Today I started a new exercise program on Youtube where you walk in place but move your arms in a series of directions. And I did the eight brocades Qigong. I have faith these two, plus walking with Leslie Sansones, will help me immensely. I just need to push through the pain, keep the faith, and not give up.
He's a regenerative therapy provider. Of course, it is not recognized by mainstream medicine and thus not covered by insurance. The injections of your own blood and platelets are $3000 each. I thanked him for his time and declined the treatment.
Did not pursue rehab specialist yet. My Husband collapsed and spent several days in the hospital. Now I'm involved with trying to get all my medical records sent to Mayo because they called about 2 weeks ago. I also reopened my disability claim with the VA. I'm doing my best but I'm just so tired after years of dealing with my husband's ongoing issues and my own. I have to make and change all the appointments (About a half hour before we are supposed to leave for his appointment, he'll call me and tell me to cancel it because he's "sick". ) I admit I'm a little resentful about the situation.
Thanks for asking.
