Okay.....
How can they tell something is different?
I went in for my usual adjustment on Friday and they said "What's going on?"... Now, that isn't normally usual except that I had just gone to the doctor's office the day before and she put me on antibiotics for a possible bronchitis. I'd taken two pills the day before and one Friday morning. (Now, remember, my chiropractors are totally against any drugs in your system. They consider it toxic. Your body should heal itself.) I wasn't sure he was referring to my being on drugs until he said something else.
While he was moving my back, my hips and then to my neck, he rechecked something... I'm not sure what, but he said to me afterwards, "you're not holding your adjustments from the last time...hmm.... We'll do a scan on you on Monday anyway".
Is it spooky that he can tell something is different by my 'body', without knowing that I'm on drugs for something else? Not sure, but it creeps me out in a fascinated way.
Why you are here....
Since I've suffered with migraines for over 30 yrs, I thought I'd try chiropractic therapy and chonicle my progress. I hope it gives someone else an solution whether this treatment is right for you. Gives a whole different meaning to "step on a crack, break your mother's back".

Continued progress
I've decided not to post after each and every session, as I'm going three days a week now, instead of four. They (both doctors) seem to do most of the same adjustments (sometimes eliminating one adjustment or another).
The one thing I've noticed is that while we've had a few 'storms' come through the area, I haven't had the usual 'low pressure migraine' that preceeds the storms. I have had one really wicked migraine a few weeks ago on a Wed night. So bad, that I had to call my daughter (I was babysitting at the time) home from her 'date' as my grandson (age 5) was 'taking care of me' and getting his own drinks/food from the kitchen while I was vomiting!! NOT!
When I mentioned this to Dr V, he said I should have called him and he'd have come to the house. Not sure I want anyone here when I'm puking... sorry. But he said I could have called the next day and he'd have seen me right away! Good to know.
I also had a day of going up and down a 15' ladder to hang 55 quilts at our church (Project Linus quilt-a-thon) and my back was killing me. Dr S said next time call their cell phones and they'd have seen me immediately. That's also nice to know.
I'm at 24 visits.
