Does anyone have soreness and pain after MFR treatments? I have been going to a physical therapist for MFR for 14 months now to try and help, or shall I say maintain, use of my body from Small Fiber Polyneuropathy. I rotate weekly from upper body to lower body. My legs have weakness. My quads flare with tightness and cease up sometimes. They have a mind of their own regardless of stretching and it still takes a day or two after MFR for them to be less painful. Also. my legs may wake up aching terribly or after a treatment. Same goes for my upper body, shoulders, arms and hands. I just wonder if others continuously have these problems. I have let my therapist know if he is applying too much pressure but, still, I feel like I should be over the hump by now. Any input would be valued. Thanks a bunch.

Just curious about you Ms. R. When do you actually sleep? It seems like I see posts coming from you all times of the days and nights. Are you able to maintain a regular schedule of some kind? Just asking, because if you are not sleeping well this might be contributing to a variety of issues. There probably ought to be a sleep discussion as I don't hear a whole lot discussed about this as a factor. And really it affects EVERYTHING. Best, Hank

@rwinney I wouldn't think this is good for the body to be so sore. I had a mgr done one time took several days to for the soreness to leave Since I have fibro I can only do a light pressure which is fine
