I've got a medical condition that wasn't picked up by two physio's despite going for back pain. Basically I have Diastasis Recti and 18 months post partnum. I went to a physio a couple of months after birth due to back pain. She said I didn't have one. I went to another physio at about 13 months PP as I was having back pain and nearly dropping baby as legs were giving way. I explained I felt like my stomach wasn't strong etc, it was put down to being sitting at the desk at work.
It wasn't untill I went on holiday and noticed my body was the same apart from stomach area which still looks pregnant. I also can't suck it my stomach, it's like I just can't do it, even for a second.
After using private medical insurance at work I've got a bad case of Diastasis Recti and requires exercising.
I was speaking to my mum about it and she mentioned something about doing stomach exercises after she gave birth (5 c sections). Than when I hung up I gave her the name of it (I don't know how to say it) and she send a screen shot of how to cure it.
I feel like she's gone deaf, a physio said that it's going to be hard to heal due to pp and the size of it and surgery may be unnecessary but obviously NHS won't do it.
I got annoyed when she sent the screen shot, under mining my feelings and what the physio said. Had she just said "you are with experts now/at least you know what it is/give it a try and I'm sure you will get some results in a few months". Instead it's like I have to ignore everything and how I feel.
