Chiropractor!

Today I made an appointment with a chiropractor! I am beyond excited that on Friday I hopefully may have some relief from severe pain I have had in my tailbone area for 3 years.

I'm almost certain the pain is from Cameron's birth! I decided to get an epidural after the doctor broke my water and my contractions were coming every minute or two. The first epidural went in fine but they had me lie myself back down and it pulled.  I told them that but they said it was just the tape and didn't sit me back up. The epidural didn't work so I labored naturally with extreme back labor and pushed for almost 3 hours. When it was pretty clear the little guy was in the wrong position they decided to do a c section. Went the new anesthesiologist went to put in the spinal she realized my epidural came out. The doctor got the epidural in on the first time,  it was just the way I lied down on my back I pulled it out. Anyway this doctor was AWEFUL! She stuck me 6 yes SIX times to get the spinal in. The sixth time was going to be her last attempt. Luckily it worked but she made me so numb, I couldn't move my legs for over 10 hours.  Needless to say, since then my back has hurt to the point that sitting in chairs and on couches hurt and even doing some of the PiYo exercises hurt.

I've been afraid to find someone randomly but I finally decided I needed to so I could get the most out of my exercise!  I searched and found a lady right down the road who actually went to Virginia Tech first before chiropractic school....Go HOKIES! I like her already ;)

I'll let you know how it goes!
