Patryk

Patryk is my new physio treating my scoliosis. We are having sometrouble trying to teach him about my ME though. I'm sure he means wellbut its a difficult juggling act trying to manage two conditions with completely different treatment requirements; with Scoliosis yoursupposed to undergo extensive physio to correct the bone structurewhilest one of the basic symptoms of ME is a very negative responce to overexertion.

He was hoping that a gradual increase in exercise might actually help my ME as typically in ordinary people who are recovering from illness it does due to increased blood flow, etc. However in my long
experience of ME this is not the case for me!

We had trouble persuading him to do home visits at all as I'm not well enough for car drives atm. He didn't think he could do a proper job at my house. However we have managed to persuade and hopefully it'll only be tempory. I hope he is pleased with the little recommended exercises I have managed to do
