wonder if its the SI, as it sounds like sciatica.

i've had a lot of PT over the years. the first one i went to made me worse and when i told her and she argued with me that that wasn't possible, i didn't go back. was really lucky that the next one understood what was going on with me so well and was able to help me so completely. i was with her and then another for about 3.5 years total, but between the two of them, they really helped. simply put, they had a lot of tools in their tool box and it didn't seem to be a "one size fits all" approach, instead they modified things to how i responded.

then i moved. that was in 2003. i've been to PT up here from time to time but with much less results. but finally this past fall, found a chiro that does much of the same soft tissue work that i've missed so much since moving back in 2003.

my advice to you is that if this PT doesn't seem to be helping you and can't explain what is going on, see if you can find another PT, someone who calls themselves a "manual PT".

don't know what's happening with your two computers, sorry.
