I am a little over 4 weeks post op. And finally starting to get some movement in my quad. I can’t lift my leg off the couch- but I can move it now. Started PT last week and religiously did my exercises over the last four days (pretty unpleasant). I am hoping to get some positive feed back tomorrow. Being that I am used to following training schedules, and actually liking them- it is not difficult to follow a routine. However going from a marathon training program involving the goal of 26.2 miles – to a schedule involving the lifting of a leg off the couch is a bit of a let down… I may need to find a new hobby…like wine tasting…my patience is running thin and I admit to being in low spirits with not a whole lot to look forward to, but I try to keep it in perspective- much worse things happen to much nicer people after all! Ok, so all my friends and my husband are going on a vacation I have to skip (after having already bought plane tickets) buy hey- I was the one who decided to go thru this ridiculous (I mean innovative and ultimately worth it) operation…:) that is all the whining I will allow myself right now- I’m off to do leg lifts.
