Mary Catherine,
About the stretching - have they had you try the type of strech when you
resist a surface and then relax and stretch? Called PNF,, I think. A sports
medicine guy told me about it. My PT laughed it off, but I insisted we try and
we never went back to the old way.
Not saying it will work for you, but something to look into - just a thought.
Good luck with your appointment.

4 PTs have failed so far because I can't do the stretching they
proscribe. It pretty much renders me immobile. Maybe I'm just so out
of shape that I can't stretch much, but I have tried to be very, very
careful and never stretch to the point of pain. The last straw was the
PT last Friday assuring me that the stretches wouldn't hurt, and - well
- although I did a lot less than he said to do, they hurt!
