About 5 years ago was rear ended and then 3 yrs later again. Both times my head went numb right away. After the initial accident, I attended a lot of pyhsio therapy, which I found only helped to a point. About 2 years later and also the first time ever, my lower back went out after gardening (felt pain in tailbone) and I was stuck in bed for about a week.

Chatting with people at work, I was advised to seek Chiropractic care. So I located a chiropractor near my home and learned that not all chiro docs are good! Then I switched based on recommendation, but before I switched my back went out again except this time I was stuck in bed for a month. This time the pain was shooting down my right leg.

Well, I had learned that my pelvic bone has twisted and my entire vertebrae has shifted from the new chiro doctor. I also found out, I have a bulged disc problem. I have lived in pain and numbness in the past 5 yrs and I just want to be fixed.

Last year I got transferred down to Houston and I miss my chiro doctor from Canada. The pelvic adjustments he performed on me had worked but the chiro doctor in Houston didn't do it and now it has shifted again, except this time instead of pain going down my right leg, my leg just goes NUMB especially when I'm lying in bed.

Has anyone had a similar injury and if you have any suggestions on what I can do to once and for all get back to somewhat normal where I won’t need any more treatments, it would be much appreciated! I am really tired of making Doctors rich! Also can anyone recommend a good Chiro doctor with more experience than 8 yrs in the Houston area?
