ChelCass Posted March 6, 2020 Report Posted March 6, 2020 Hey Smitty, Do they have you doing physical therapy ? Nurses came to the house twice a week for my therapy and then I went to a facility for my therapy after that. Made a world of differences. Hope all goes well at your check up. Keep us posted. Quote
