Take care of yourself.......

maybe there's a reason they want someone to break your ribs???? 

geeze.............I wouldnt wish that on anyone

neither would i, which i why if your ribs were broken during treatment by a doctor who understood your situation, i would hope you would do something to prevent that from being repeated with another patient.  Like i said, i don't know HOW your ribs were broken, you're leaving that part up in the air, but if it was through treatment such as spinal manipulation, there's a big problem with the way you were treated.

I believe I've indicated that I'm not going to pursue this legally. For many reasons, and most of all, IT IS MY CHOICE. Adding to the issue, I didn't start this thread indicating I wanted to sue my chiropractor, rather it is important one takes care of their body. Osteoporosis is hard enough to live with. IF you dont have it, you dont understand.

i think i understood that you weren't going to do anything.  which is why i feel bad for any other patients with Osteoporosis that go to that doctor.  I just hope no one else has their ribs broken.  Anyway i'm off to go see Patti Smith now. I hope you feel better soon and i'm sorry you're hurting.  I know what it's like to be hurt by a chiropractor, you have my sympathies.

I'll subluxate your mango slicer. kp

leave Manuel out of this! http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=7iN&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=subluxation+theory&spell=1 I know it feels good but i wondered why so many people are told they have to come back for years of treatment and why they find subluxation in just about everyone.  And then when i got hurt and so many other doctors told me that i shouldn't let a chiropractor touch me i started researching.  A lot of people who go become friends with their doctors because it a.) feels good and b.) it becomes such a long term relationship.  so it's a touchy subject.

Same thing with sex. kp

((((((((((Stacey)))))))))))) So sorry you are going through this.  I know how much riding means to you.  I hope you are feeling better soon.  Here is to a speedy recovery...

Thanks (((((((((Shawn)))))))))))) I appreciate your thoughts. It sucks to have to give up riding for a while. Sucks more than the pain in my ribs. Each day is better than the last, and I appreciate the speedy recovery because the sooner I heal, the sooner I can ride. Thanks!! Sw
