Thanks Jo for the exercise link. I had actually looked at those before and so I know I am doing what I should be doing!
Thanks for checking on me Donna. I would say it is still going well. Not sure what the measurement is as I am doing PT at home. Yesterday I added getting in the pool and just moving. My daughter, who is expecting her first baby, bought a long floating "noodle" thing. I sat on it and peddled my legs as if on a bike. Closest thing to biking I will get as I do not have a stationary one and am afraid to get on the little beach comber that I used to ride around the ranch on........BIG fear of falling off right now. So I am just stretching whenever I get a chance and working here at home gives me the opportunity to juggle my schedule a bit.
I am getting most of my PT through normal daily activities. I read here often that daily living can also be considered PT.........hope that's right! I know I am not where my Dr got me last Friday but so much further then before the MUA. I have very little pain and the AWFUL "vice grip" that felt clamped on my knee is gone! Still tight and sore but I finally can lean into my stretch and feel some soreness but not the serious pain I have had the past 7 months!!!
Sleeping in the brace still (although not so well tonight...... That's why i am on the forum at this crazy hour!) and likely will for awhile..... I believe those awful night attacks hindered my healing so much so will continue to eliminate the possibility of them returning for now!
Any advice on pool exercises anyone? Just kinda winging that and hoping moving in the water is just good in general.
Donna, sounds like you are doing a great job with you MUA progress.
Night, night everyone..... Looking forward to all new advice!
