I started physical therapy in earnest today. From 8 to 10:15 I did a bunch of different exercises, targeting different muscles in the abdominal area, back, and legs. The physical therapist I'm seeing (Brad Jordan) specializes in musculoskeletal issues, especially the back. I feel somewhat better already just knowing I'm doing something about the back pain. I have some nice printouts of different exercises to do. I'm becoming less worried and more motivated about this whole thing. It will be good to get stronger. The three plus years I've been at this desk job (with long hours) have had a negative effect. Feeling better for now.
