in the 8th week of basically the same break, hang in there it will get better. starting therapy the second time the first they tried too much too fast and messed me up for a couple of weeks, just be careful and use the pain meds when needed. I can cut some now have tried on the machine but it is a little to high. Use the time to get a good emotional and mental start to the rest of your life. read and pray, love to you
