First session of physical therapy wore me out

I’m pretty behind on polluting the Internet with my meandering stories and opinions (namely on hockey) but yesterday, I was exhausted by my first PT session. Personally, I was hoping the assessment was going to be, “The drugs are working along with the Wii Fit, stay the course! Bye!” No dice. The therapist had me go through a string of exercises which should strengthen my shoulder and neck regions which is where the bulk of the pain was. After doing these, the burning sensations returned. Some progress. I didn’t have much energy when we got home. I passed out watching TV quicker than I normally do. What we had for dinner probably didn’t help too.

My follow-up session will be in two weeks. Meanwhile, I have to do the exercises at least five days a week and keep taking the medication until it runs out.

I’ll be catching up on posts over the weekend since I’ve had a little more time to reflect on my Flyers losing the Cup and watching the Stars choke on their home ice.
