I've been doing the exercises faithfully, and I even request print-outs showing me the correct form. I think my therapist is a bit unfamiliar with MS. She's young and speaks with an accent so there's also a communication issue when I ask for an explanation.


She's very smart though because she can touch my back and know where the pain is without me telling her the exact spot. I suggested at the last appointment that when adding certain exercises the pain becomes more severe so she modified my routine.


They haven't done an MRI yet so maybe that will be the next step.


I'm really thankful that the pain isn't keeping me awake. I take Trazodone for sleep at night so that seems to calm it down so I can rest. I'm thinking about looking into medical cannabis in the future.
