My GP sent me to PT for my back and neck pain. The therapist started by giving me about 10 minutes of exercises to do at home, but each session he added more and more and I kept getting worse and worse pain in my shoulders. By the time I quit I was up to 2 hours worth of exercises every day! Now I'm seeing a fibro specialist and he told me that was way too much for someone with fibro. I quit PT a couple months ago, but my left shoulder still aches and clicks when I move it. Just so frustrated that I wasted so much time and money on something that made me feel worse and that the physical therapist didn't listen to me and just kept giving me more exercises when I said that I was in pain. He called and left me a voicemail the other day asking how I was doing, but I haven't responded.
Has anybody else had an experience like that in PT?
Has PT actually helped any of you? If so, what sort of exercises were you given?
Should I call him back? And what do I say?
