Day 4
What was the most disheartening thing a doctor has told you about your symptoms?
Actually, all doctors I’ve seen told me that my symptoms are not severe ( I guess they were right, I was not in exaggerated pain, I experience heavy pressure and tightness in the shoulders back, pinched nerve sensation in the neck at that time).
My physician doctor said that “It’s just a muscles, get some physical therapy”. I was shocked, I expect she would send me for X-rays at least, or get some medication. She said, X-rays will only show a bones, but not the muscles…
I doubt that my doctor really cares about me, so I visited a chiropractor who actually did X-rays. The X-rays shows a disk degeneration and mild scoliosis. The chiropractor did a couple of adjustments and after 3 sessions, he honestly said that my case is not severe and nothing he can do for me… I continue visited him anyway, because my symptoms still were there.
However, after 4th visit to chiropractor, I come back with trembling hands, and after 5th adjustment I end it up with a blurring vision. I was so devastating, beside my neck and back problem, now I had to deal with a trembling hands and blurring vision…
Can you imaging me, being a graphic designer with a shaking hands? Working on the computer became a BIG challenge. I had to zoom out like crazy in order to draw or read anything on the screen. I started to think to end it up my career.
I had a visit to an ophthalmologist, he found nothing and send me home. Likely, I found a book “The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses”. The relaxation and meditation technics from this book help me to restore my vision and trembling hands symptom was gone as well.
After many visits to all kind of doctors, chiropractor, massagist and so on, I understood that I have to do something by myself. And I found a book “Healing Back Pain: The Mind-Body Connection”…
