I saw the neurosurgeon on Friday and the good news is I only have to wear the horrid neck brace for another 4 weeks!
When I took it off for the x ray I had to tilt my head back (no problem) and then tilt my head forward and put my chin on my chest. Again, it was no problem doing it.....but then I couldn't lift it back up and had to use both hands. I was asked to turn my head left and right. The radiographer kindly pointed out that I was moving my eyes left and right but my head wasn't budging an inch an inch.
The next stop after removal of the brace is some serious physiotherapy :-(
Thank you all.
Well spotted pixie.....although you deserve a glare for laughing at Gness and her new name for me.......;-)
(If you want to know the truth, if I was on my knees I would still be taller than Gness. She is always popular during panto season.....hi ho!) xx
