Recently I walked into Fremantle Hospital physiotherapy. I saw a physiotherapist I trusted. I have osteogenesis imperfector. I told the physio the outcome of a knee injury. I felt they ignored me told me that i had this for years and it is just a flare up. It seemed they then made a terrible assumption and put me on a leg press, they set the weight, told me it was ok and it wasn’t.
Will they take responsibility form this? No I feel they will not, I feel they will blame me and not what I feel was their lack of competence working with a person with osteogenesis imperfector.
Thank you, i told them i could not do their exercises, they knew my history, they have caused my knee to completely blow out again. I cant have my planned treatment. They have caused injury in my lower back setting the resistance above 5 kgs completely blowing out a successful back procedure i had. I bet you think i am blamed and i walked in with no back pain and my knee was quite pain free. What are you going to do about this, i cant have my injection, i cant go to work, my foot is so swollen, my knee is twice the size from when i woke up this morning, why because I feel the physio treated me and ignored me. I bet you say it is all in my head i bet you do nothing.
