But the medical field in general is just weird. Three times I had our local docs dismiss my knee problem and prescribe physical therapy when in reality I had a torn meniscus and actually needed surgery. <br /><br />So sweet that Ashke whinnies to you:) My horses could care less about me unless I produce food lol.prairiewindladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10525185904023052740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7657955103086716631.post-46756807063661392422014-02-12T13:38:25.286-07:002014-02-12T13:38:25.286-07:00I'm glad your experience was overall different...I'm glad your experience was overall different and that your chiro was able to fix you! And I'm so happy for you that you don't have that fear any more. <br /><br />Meant to say this in the previous comment: Ashke's love for you always makes me smile from ear to ear. I hope Cali is back to normal very soon and that Ashke stays healthy.

I had been to the doctor two dozen times for back pain in my life, including sciatica, and the only thing they ever said was to take ibuprophen. I took ibuprophen until it made me so sick I couldn't take it for at least two years and even now I have to be careful.<br /><br />The chiro actually fixed the issue with my spine, which I believe started when I was 13 and had Queenie fall with me. For the very first time as an adult, I have no back pain. Well, at least not until I started moving, exercising and riding again. That pain, though, is muscular, not nerve pain. The sciatica that has plagued me for 37 years has resolved. If that kind of pain ever returns, I would go see the chiro again. <br /><br />My biggest issue was in not knowing the disc could be healed. And once healed, is not at any more risk than any other disc, so unless I have a horse fall with me, I should be good.Crickethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00834640625999522559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7657955103086716631.post-1903112335851896902014-02-11T13:17:52.108-07:002014-02-11T13:17:52.108-07:00Just one more reason why I don't like chiros i...Just one more reason why I don't like chiros in the human medical field. I'm terrified of letting one touch me, especially knowing how little schooling they have to go through before they're allowed to manipulate a person's spine! I think it should be illegal for them to give medical advice, as they are not doctors. But that's just my opinion. :)<br /><br />I'm so glad you've discovered this new information on back injuries! I can only begin to imagine how liberated you feel right now!!

Almost all of my chronic back pain is gone.<br /><br />My only issue is that I allowed myself to be paralyzed by the fear. I believed him without doing my own research and I shouldn't have allowed myself to be so petrified. (The pain was pretty incredible though, so I am cutting myself a little slack.)Crickethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00834640625999522559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7657955103086716631.post-15515412373299489032014-02-11T12:51:45.995-07:002014-02-11T12:51:45.995-07:00Chiros aren't real doctors.. pretty sure most ...Chiros aren't real doctors.. pretty sure most are quacks actually and do more harm then good, but to each their own!L.Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05052638724440787772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7657955103086716631.post-915569702759535332014-02-11T12:20:09.823-07:002014-02-11T12:20:09.823-07:00Chiropractor.

I stopped seeing him because even after I got Ashke and J was telling him how much I loved and needed that horse, he still was being all nay-sayer and negative.
