Hi all
I've had my first session of chiropractic today for my sciatica type pain and I really wish I hadn't .
I had to have major emergency surgery 18months ago after during a minor gynae op the surgeon accidentally tore my spleen and didn't realise until way after I woke up....I was told that it was likely I wouldn't survive...hence the HA.
Well, all is healed. I have pain in my tummy but the drs say that's from adhesions from the surgery. I've asked them that if I stretched too far or do some sports, will I cause bleeding from tearing adhesions, and they've said no.....
Well today my chiropractor did a move where she twisted me while I was lying down, and pushed really hard down on my middle ( over my crossed arms) and my back clicked. She did this move twice. It didn't hurt, but I have felt sick and scared since that she's really damaged my internal organs or torn an adhesion that's been stuck to an organ and that I'm slowly internally bleeding again.... I can't get it off my mind. I had some tummy pain before the session but now it's sore still, and I'm panicking.
She explained the risks beforehand and said I'll feel sore after. I asked her before she started if she could tear the abdominal adhesions and make me bleed internally and she said no.
I've felt like passing out, and I know that's probably from me being soooo anxious (I'm actually shaking) and my pulse is racing. I keep taking these as signs that I'm bleeding to death.
Does anyone know if this can happen even? Why do I do this?? I'm so scared and feel so alone
