I'm doing great Liz. Great rehab session this morning. ROM is improving every day. Working on a lot of strengthening in therapy and my quads are coming back to life. Graduated to heat today before my session started and then ice to finish. Rode the bike for 8 minutes.
Going back to work next week just for a few hours a day. Depending on how I feel next week I will probably go back full time the week after next.
Still doing my exercises at home 2x per day and I feel like this has really helped to speed up my recovery.
I'm completely off the crutch and walking on my own. I'm not going anywhere fast but I'm doing it with no crutch.
I think I'm still on track to do a short spin class with no resistance by day 21.
All in all, I feel like I'm a good 2 weeks ahead of where I thought I would be at this point. I attribute this to 1.) a great surgeon, 2.) a lot of work in the several months before surgery (Pilates and spin) and 3.) an aggressive (but sensible) rehab done at an extremely good PT facility.
