Hi and thank you. I had a fall in the house and fell on my lower right side. I went to see my GP and she diagnosed me with soft tissue injury on my back after examining me. She sent me to xrays at the hospital she s associated with. The xrays showed no broken bones so she put me on entire bedrest with vicatin every 6 hours and meloxicam 15 mg pils -once a day. I ve been following this procedure for one week and now she wants me to have phycical therapy. I can hardly walk and my husband has to do everything for me. Each step I take holding on to my husband s elbows is excruciating pain. I have no trouble getting out of bed as long as I keep my feet together and have a potty chair and ease into bed myself. As long as my feet are close together I feel no pain and repeating, taking one step at time holding onto my husband causes excrutiating pain. Thank you so very much for your perusual of my letter. I know I m not ready for physical therapy and perhaps with your recommendation I should see an excellent orthopedic doctor at York Hospital, Maine.With great appreciation of your perusal of my letter. Thank you again so very much!
