Kathy: gosh, my heart goes out to your right now. So, i go to all the same md's and pt's that you go to. But i actually go to two PTs at different places for a variety of reasons - but one is that they are good at different things. Anyway, since i think you go to Beyond Basics -- i want to share thi...

It didn't reduce my pain when i saw him but i was in a flare (which im out of since i swtiched to Lyrica which is really helping me) -- but my back felt so much better afterwards. I am going to see him again this week. If you are in a lot of pain in might be hard because you move around alot on his ...

I saw Kiambu and he was able to align my sacrum and pelvic. For the first time in probably two years my leg length were the same. It felt good. unfortunately, it didn't hold -- which i didn't expect it to so i am going back this week. He is very knowledgeable. He gave me exercises to do. i have neve...

I went to my hernia consult. He couldn't feel a hernia but said that you need to do a CT scan with vasalvar (sp?) etc to be 100% sure. He wants me to rest and take motrin as he thinks i injured the ilioinguinal ligament. I am doubtful of this because i already have rest and taken anti-inflamatories ...

This is his email address. i tried to see him last week but i couldn't. BTW -- what PTs have you gone to in NYC?

i just called Jerry and asked him to recommend someone in new york. He recoomended a massage therapist in New York city as well as Lila abbate and the Shapiro at Gold Coast -- who are both in long island. i can give you the massage therapists info if you would like to contact him,

My PT is a hip rehab pelvic floor specialist -- so she does both.

Hi Karyn: thanks for the post -- interesting, my symptoms don't match the description but i will bring it to my PT (who is the same as jackie's). I don't have an MRI above the lumbar. But L1-L2 has some degeneration. The ilioinguinal and genitofemeral come out of L1-L2. Anyway, i know i have narrowe...

The reason that i wanted to read Northern Spy's posts is that my symptoms don't match the classic hernia symptoms in that i dont get relief lying down. But i have had this for three and half years so maybe some of the pain is central sensitization. I do get MORE pain from any pressure into my groin:...
