    Huge progress + have a question

    My low back pain has significantly improved. I couldn't sit in my office chair at all a couple of weeks ago and for the past few days I've sat it in as much as I want. I've also been walking as much as I want. I still have a bit of pain in my arms and legs but it's definitely getting better...

    How do I make the leap?

    I had xrays for my knees, shins, and arms. Nothing found. The only MRI I've had was for my cervical spine because one specialist thought something there was causing my arms to hurt.

    How do I make the leap?

    Hi everyone. I just joined the forum. I developed RSI in both of my arms in late 2024. I was unable to type on a keyboard without pain. I did physical therapy for 6 months which moderately fixed my issue. I was able to type for 3-4 hours a day and go to the gym. There was still some lingering...
