[QUOTE="hseofpayne, post: 347148"] Yeah, even my doctors asked me questions over the past 2 years to see if I was really hurt. They ask you the same questions in different ways to see if your answers are consistent. They also ask about symptoms that you shouldn't have with your injuries to see if you are honest. It's their job, never really bothered me. I had C-5/C-6 C-6/C-7 fusion almost 3 months ago, was up walking within a week. I am doing general conditioning at physical therapy for my neck, stretching rubber power bands, treadmill, ect. At home I am walking as fast as I can about 3 to 4 miles a day; can't run yet, gained about 25 lbs. over 2 years! Also doing a lot of low weight high rep upper body presses. Instead of doing a certain number of presses, I do 4 different exercises for 5 minutes straight; trying to build up my stamina. Also on a diet! Did your doctor think you would have permanent restictions? My current doctor hasn't really said. Ironically, the doctor UPS made me go see for a second opinion said I would have weight limits;UPS decided there second opinion guy didn't know what he was doing!!!!! [/QUOTE]
