Hello everyone, what a fabulous fall we’re having. I am two weeks out of the collar my vertebrae have healed my neck muscles and my back muscles are extremely tight so now I’m getting PT and dry needling to loosen them up. It’s still pretty painful. I have good bad days driving is very difficult so I don’t go very far and I don’t drive often cause I can’t turn my head. My my muscles are locked. I just found out that my winter housing fell through so this money is gonna really help me through this winter. I have been advised by both my doctors to go on short-term disability because of the neck brakes. Everything you do is leaning forward and each time I do that and reach forward with any sort of weight. It is really straining my neck and causing a lot of pain later on that day so it’s still too early to go forward with the jobs that I actually do. I wanna thank everybody again because this recovery is a lot more daunting than I really thought it was going to be
