    The bursitis was relieved some by the cortisone shot.. Not fully tho.. I go back next week for a follow up to that. Otherwise all is great.. Walking at my pre injury speed the last few times I went out.. 30 minutes of strength training upper and lower body and balance work. You'd almost never...

    So I had my 3 month follow up and the marble feeling was indeed bursitis so I was given a shot right there and so far so good with some relief. I'm also going to sports medicine PT much more advanced and much more to my liking. I was very upset to see all my favorite yoga and pilates moves (...

    I'm doing okay good.. Still have swelling in the outside of my thigh which I'm not thrilled about and feels like I'm sitting on a bag of marbles. Hopefully that'll go away. But as of about 20 minutes ago I broke a tooth /filling.. I already have antibiotics since I have a cleaning scheduled for...

    I'm doing great! The dislocation was a minor setback psychically.. Mentally it set me back more. I've been walking 2 plus miles a day. Up and down stairs one after the other leg! Sleeping had still been elusive.. I'm sure that'll happen eventually. I'm in outpatient PT which I feel is an utter...

    It's regular prob a bit low.. It was user error. I had my legs in a way that I shouldn't have. My good side was leaning on the couch with my foot under my other leg as far as I remember. And did not plant both feet before standing so my good leg foot acted like a lever if you will and well. Only...

    I'm fine now... Nervous.. Cautious.. Sort of sitting like curled up with a good book modified of course as there's still swelling and tightness.. But not a position that hurt.. Dr seems to think the muscles and tendons and stuff just hadn't tightened up enough yet to keep it all together. And...

    Everything went great! Better than expected.. PT just left the house and said are you sure you're the patient? She has never seen any one move and recover so fast. I knew I was going to recover quickly with all the hiking and exercising I've been keeping up with. Leg still is swollen and has...
