I've begun my 2nd 2 weeks on the decompression table. I'm going 3 times a week now. My back is feeling pretty good. I'm hoping to see good results on the x-ray in 4 weeks, but somehow I'm doubtful. I just don't see how a disc is going to regenerate. But my chiropractor keeps a bazillion articles posted on his walls about how this machine has helped so many people. I want to be hopeful, but I'm afraid to hope...
Also, my neck has issues. I have several vertebrae that have shifted a bit, and one that is tilted a little. The Dr thinks this is due to an old injury, probably during childhood. Entirely possible. And the neck is supposed to have a curve in it, but mine is straight. Dr. B thinks this can be fixed by doing some sort of exercise 3 times a day with a gadget of some sort - strengthen the muscle which will change the spine. Sounds logical - I think I start on that next week.
Having been strapped to a table for 30 minutes every day has done wonders for my prayer life! I've been praying for everyone I can think of. Any requests?
Today is going to be 100 degrees here, then go up a degree or two every day for the next 5 days. Possibly see 108 by Saturday. Sigh...
Well, I hear Josiah burbling to himself in the next room. Better go get his chubbiness up...
