    It's not a preg thing I'm pretty sure- it comes about when the spine is still growing I think, ie adolescence or childhood.

    Oddly enough when I was having my epidural put in for DD's birth the anesthetist told me I had it too. Probably advanced labour was not the best time to tell someone these sorts of things though.

    Still got more physio to go (already have two appointments booked for next week), and am annoyed at myself for not being able to have acupuncture . The physio said he was going to do it, and I started to get very nervous (I am petrified of needles for those who didn't know), and even though he explained it, I couldn't do it. He put one needle in, which was okay for maybe a minute, then it hurt like I find all needles do, and I didn't think I could continue. And I cried. Dammit. Acupuncture is one aspect of trying to fix my back and shoulders, so without it, we are stuck doing only two treatment methods instead of three, which no doubt will mean more time to heal.
