I hate my physical therapist.

He's treating this like he has unlimited time to correct everythign that is wrong with my posture, which he doesn't. As soon as I'm able to work with out restrictions, the insurance co will stop sending me, and I can't afford the copay to continue on my own.

Telling me that I'm going to end up crippled with sciatica doesn't help either, as this is a therapy vs food kind of choice.

I limped out of there in tears, didn't even get my charge slip from the clerk, and was STILL half an hour late to work.

I also have the lovely task of explaining to HR that these restrictions mean I am going to be unable to do the things I need to get done before the office moves next Friday. I'm not allowed to lift any heavy boxes (and when I asked why that wasn't spelled out in my restrictions, he said it was covered under the "no squatting or kneeling")

I really don't need this right now.

stealthbunny suggested that maybe I ask to be switched to a female PT, since I can't figure out WHAT he wants me to do with this one exercise - when I'm in the right position I feel the stretch/pull in the wrong place, and vise versa. It is impossible for a woman with my ass to "lie on your side with your lower back flat against the wall and your knees together". Umm - no, you get one or the other.
