Well, I guess I'm gonna live.
The chiro laughed at me when I told him I thought I had MS.
I told him my problems and he felt around my spine and legs and told me that my lower back was really tangled up and not good.
So, I have to go three times a week to get it back in shape and all.
He said I needed to get a new computer chair, a new mattress, and not spend so much time on the computer.
He suggested a book, "Computer Ergonomics" I think it was... and that I take up yoga(?)

I was like... ok.
He said the problems in my foot were all because of the way I've been sitting.
So, he said we'll fix my back and then work more with my foot.
I also had like tightened muscles in my calf that would pulsate at night... and he found the spot and pressed on it so hard I almost cried. It hurt so bad. He said I needed to do that 2 times a day for 30 seconds to get the knot out of my leg.

And the side of the foot thing was because I've been walking funny due to the numbness in my big toe.
He told me in about 30 years I'm gonna have terrible bunions because my arches aren't right and I'm going to have to constantly try to keep inflammation out of them.
(Great.)

I'm just thankful it's nothing serious.

Thanks for all your posts and support.
