Physical Therapy

I am going to see the physical therapist this Saturday, at 9am!!!!! I've been in the queue since last August and there I am this weekend.

To prepare for the session, I first dig out the referral slip. Then, I try to recollect the symptoms, sequence, some observations, etc. of my knee pain, as I am going to tell the physical therapist all over again, and need not to say I had forgotten most of the details since it was first started at the end of 2005! Then, I count the number of doctors I have consulted -- my own doctor, two private specialists, two Chinese doctors (not to mention I had actually seen three Chinese doctors at the HKU SPACE clinic), the one in the emergency room, one physical therapist, another PT who determined how far I should stand in the queue, two government specialists... ...and each time I have to mention the details of my pain all over again... ...

I am sympathetic to those advocate for one-stop service for sexual violence victims!
