Karen Peterson said:😲So, I just finished my first therapy session, heading back tomorrow for the second one, and I guess it’ll just keep going like this until things improve🙄 Nobody really wants to give me a straight answer on how long this whole thing takes—and look, I totally get it, I know you can't predict it because everyone heals differently—but man, I would still love to have some kind of ballpark figure to prepare myself for...🙂
I mean, there was actually another girl at the physical therapy clinic where I go who just wrapped up her treatment... but nope, I couldn't manage to squeeze out any info about how long she was stuck in the cycle...🤷
So, Anthony, you're saying maybe a month? Like, roughly?🙄 Well, okay, that's about what I was thinking... and now... well, God willing, hopefully even sooner than that!👍 Seriously, I am trying so hard, doing my exercises day and night, at home, staring at myself in the mirror, without a mirror, even while walking down the street or sitting at work...😛
Today, I could actually move one side of my mouth a tiny bit... it's nothing major, but I don't think I could do that just the other day... or maybe I'm just losing my mind?
The actual therapy feels pretty nice during the massage part,😁 but that electrical stimulation part is kind of intense and uncomfortable (especially if you haven't managed to eat anything substantial, which was me yesterday, for example!😲)
