So in the ongoing saga of my injury today my physical therapist called me "Marcy", which is slightly better than the last time I was there, my third visit, where at the end of it she couldn't remember my name at all and had to ask and also didn't remember which shoulder was injured even though she'd just done an ultrasound and massage on it, not to mention had treated me for two appointments prior.
Then when her assistant or whoever she is went to do the weird "stim"/electrode thing she shocked the fuck out of my shoulder, right in the front where a majority of the pain has been. It felt like being tasered or something, and I just reacted, literally doubling over and curling into a ball while yelling "OW OW OW OW" and tearing up. For those of you who don't know, it's really, REALLY not supposed to do that. So she stopped it right then, apologized, and then continued to try to use those things on me, which continued to be painful (possibly cause my shoulder just HURT so bad from being shocked seconds before) though not intensely painful, just more like a stinging, which it's also not supposed to do. Eventually she found something that was "ok", though it didn't feel good, and I think it was fine solely because my shoulder had an ice pack on it that entire time and so was fairly numb at that point. So now in addition to being sore from the cortisone injections, I am now very sore and stinging from being ELECTROCUTED. I hate *.
Anyone know any good physical therapists?
