May 26,2023. (16 Days after surgery )
So I went to out patient physical therapy , to see what they had to offer. The PT did measure my leg length ( I asked him to ). The PT told me my left ( the operated side ) was a little shorter than the right, ( he told me how much, but I forgot ). He said the discrepancy was very minor, and nothing to be concerned about. We talked about my surgery, he said he looked at my operation report ( I am going to ask if I can get a copy of that ( why? I don’t know). The PT said the report talked about bone spurs, and something else, I did not catch. I am going to ask him to get the report next time I see him and go over it line by line with me. He tested my strength in both my legs, and seemed surprised in the strength in my operated leg. The PT told me my prognosis was very good. He stayed with me the full time, but I did see some other patients working basically by themselves.
One more thing the PT told me of a good medical supply store near by, and I was able to buy a cane that was a little bigger ( I am 6-2 ) and was more sturdy. When I was there I also looked at their Pride lift chairs, I like them, but they cost around $2000, I am going to research these chairs, if anyone has any knowledge on these chairs , please let me know.
