Hey....thanks for checking on me. In house PT just left. I am at 95/3 which I am really pleased with. Stiffness is my issue and I am massaging those parts into submission. Swelling/bruising are pretty much gone but I will continue to ice. I have been on the cane for about 4 days.
PT has not discharged me as of yet due to a long interval between OR and OS visit. I will go to see the OS at 23 days. (Tuesday-long story) I have dissolving stitches so it should be nothing but a dressing removal, PT orders and a blessing to drive.
No pain meds for me but the occasional Tylenol and I am pretty much sleeping through the night in the bed. (Except for the bathroom visits)
I am really glad the cellulitis is resolving for you and your sleep is improving. I would say with the pain numbers, you are making some progress. And a dinner out.....jealousy! People smile at you, greet you etc! A world exists outside the house! What a concept!
Keep me informed and keep up the good work...talk soon.
