Still struggling after 6 months but can see a light at the end of the tunnel ! Really stirred things up with GP and phoning hospital direct and got an appointment with the spinal clinic - saw a really nice physiotherapist who worked on me for over an hour. Told me to tell her if what she was doing hurt too much and she would stop - being a macho man I kept quiet but believe me it hurt - after 10 minutes or so of pushing me hip in to try and straighten the spine I came over all woozy and felt sick - she bollocked me and said this was a reaction tp pain and I should have said something ! Anyway the good news is . subject to the mri scan ( I'm having next week ) she is optimistic she can get me back to normal again albeit it will take a while.
And I'm keeping the car !
