Wow - it's been about five months since surgery. I wish I was further along, but for me this is the only way to go - slowly. When things get rushed, it all falls apart. Literally. And figuratively.
Last nights PT went well. My guy has a new assistant who seems okay. The only thing is I hate having to go through everything with a new person. I've been there for over a year so would rather work with my guy regularly. It gets boring repeating the long list of things I can and cannot do. I'm sure she'll catch on in no time though, I told her to read my chart, it would keep her busy for a while. :-)
I met my friend afterwards at this great little pub around the corner, the Pig-n-Whistle. It was not too crowded or loud so we were able to catch up, and the food there is quite good. I felt pretty good sitting for a while even though I had only iced for about five minutes, as it was so busy at PT I was running out of time till I had to meet my friend.
Today (touch wood) the hip feels ok, though I'm slightly achy from the weather. Am still planning on going to the pool after work though. My PT was very happy that it went well on Saturday and things this can really help to push up my strength a notch. He said to not do the kick board but rather walk, do leg lifts, back kicks and squats. That's all I remember for now. We'll see how it goes.
