Don'tcha know...... we always want to be the one that progresses BETTER and FASTER than expected......Originally Posted by Dogmama
I had my 2 week checkup and everything is progressing "as expected" even though I have no improvement in numbness and 50% improvement in pain. There was more damage than expected, so this will be a process.
Of course we should, because don't we take such good care of ourselves and stay in such good shape......?? Please, can't we heal faster than the normal human? I know that was what I hoped when I was broken. Of course, didn't happen that way. I had to accept healing at a normal rate and be pleased with whatever progress was made.
ALL progress is good, Dogmama! And it sounds like you are making that progress. I am positive that at some point, you will look back at this and be awed at the recovery you've made. Give yourself the time to make that recovery. And keep reading all these posts on TE Forums. That'll keep you laughing and in good spirits, of nothing else does.
