Thank you for your advice. He's much better at talking about all of this type of stuff than I am. I just don't want him to feel like I'm criticizing or something. I'm kind of sensitive and just assume everyone else is too.

As for the muscles, I was working with a rehab therapist. It seemed to go well, but she went on vacation. I'm waiting on her to return. It still hurts a lot though, and it's not that pleasure/pain feeling either.
