Saturday Night Fever

All my blood work came back normal! Yeah! That was a call at 7:15am this morning from my doctor.... who in the heck calls at 7:15am? But anyway... We took J to the pediatrician today for his 9 month check up. He's doing well if you all haven't seen him in a while.

Then, after I dropped the boys off, I went to the chiropractor who said he didn't take appointments. Issue #1... So I signed in to a sign in sheet at the receptionist desk, with no receptionist and sat down and picked up a People magazine. 45 minutes later I am still waiting to be seen and there is one person in front of me! i thought, I am going to be here for 3 hours! Vowing that I will see this guy today and then go somewhere else where they take appointments, thinking I have no time for this.... Finally, he comes and gets the lady and says I will be with you in a little while. I'm thinking well obviously, all these people have all day to sit around at the chiropractors office just waiting their turn, but I do not. But she only took like 5 min. 

So I go back there and it's a throw back form the 70's. I don't think they have updated anything since then. But then we start talking and he takes x-rays also on very 70's equipment. I am thinking, How much bad stuff am I really putting into my body at this point? But he goes and develops them in his back room.. comes out, we chat and then he works on my back... 

At the end of the visit, he gets out this blue tape and put three pieces on my back and stomach. He says this will trick my muscles into going the opposite way so they will unconstrict faster etc. I'm still not totally sure. He said if it starts to come off I can retape it with something else. He also says it's waterproof, so I should be able to leave it on for a few days!!!!! And that he could sell me a roll so I could keep putting this on for like the rest of my life! WHAT?!??! By 4pm it had half fallen off, and lost it's stickiness...so I took the rest of it off. I mean come on, picking up and putting down J and then holding him...are you serious? That stuff would only stay on if it's Duct tape and I refuse to donate my body to science. 

Needless to say, I will give this guy another shot on Wednesday and see if he can further help anything along. I have no idea how long it will take to see results. But it's probably a good idea that I went to see him when I did.
