Hello, my HW friends...I hope that anyone's Chronic Pain has eased up & hoping y'all are doing well. I know I mentioned awhile ago about starting the "Biofeedback Physical Therapy" for my Pelvic & Bladder Trauma + Dysfunction. I was supposed to start 2-months ago but the Therapist that my Doctor had referred me to was first gone on vacation till July 25th. I had left her a couple messages before she was back explaining that my Urogynecologist wanted me going everyday for at least 3-6 months. She got back, changed her voice-mail that she wasn't on Vacation anymore. She never returned my call, so I then called everyday leaving very nice messages for a week. She never returned my calls & then I phooned like 2-days after that & her message said she was out till the last week in August...Ugh!
By this point I was really getting discouraged. By this time I was supposed to of had a follow-up with my Uro Dr. to see how I was doing with my therapy. I canceled my appt. with them last week since I had not made any progress by then. I then emailed his Nurse & explained what was going on & did she have anyone else to refer me too. She immediately mailed me a long list of Biofeedback therapists. Turned out that just a couple minutes away from where I live, there is a place that is qualified in this particularly field.
So, tomorrow morning is my first appt. I am kind of nervous & not looking forward to electrodes put in vagina & rectum. Hopefully I won't have to have it in the rectum since I have a stoma...
Thanx for letting me vent & listening. Will post tomorrow to let you know how it goes...Lol
Your Healingwell Friend,
