Spoke too soon about getting pain back under control. Keep trying to get back to what I was doing. Going to need to take it slower still for awhile. The pain specialist instructed me on stretches and to never force things. Take it slow until the muscles can strengthen.
So fearful I will not get back what I did have.
Yes, pain and anxiety are doing their thing.
Forcing things does not work for me.
Not the physical therapist’s fault. She was just doing her job.
I am trying to slowly regain the flexibility I did have. I go too far and I see little pinpoints of light. This is new.
So yes, anxiety is running rampant with the “what if’s”?

@parus Damage can happen in a blink of an eye to our home (or our body). The rebuild takes time but it can happen. We may even end up with something that works better for us than what we had. Just keep picturing the end result of your "house" rebuild. Remind yourself that the work you put into it each day is getting you closer to that image. We're all rooting for you!
