[quote=Anonymous]My myofascial physical therapist, also a nurse and very skilled, leveled with me and told me that she believes my issues are due to having no core strength and too much weight in my middle. I have chronic low back pain and ankle pain, bladder frequency and leakage, and indigestion/heartburn. I am about 40 pounds overweight and carry this weight in my midsection. She believes it's putting pressure on my pelvic floor. My ultrasounds and a CT scan are clean except for severe lumbar degeneration, which I am guessing my weight is worsening. I feel hopeless, like I am doomed to suffer until I can somehow shed all this weight which will take time and isn't easy at my age (44) anyway. My uro-gyno suggested a Botox treatment but this seems scary as well, it can freeze up the bladder and anyway it won't help my constantly aching back. :( Help?[/quote]
