It was not bad. A couple were slightly stingy, but nbd. I can start therapy. My X-rays were really cool. I looked at the before and no wonder it hurt to walk! He added a centimeter and a half of length to my leg.

He gave me my scrip for my therapy and kind of loosened up my restrictions. More like 90 degree ish but don't go nuts. He's more worried about twisting.

Thanks for thinking of me!
 
@muckingabout That sounds like a good report. Glad to hear of loosening of restrictions. I look forward to your therapy reports too. Do you have a plan or a PT chosen already? So, this was 2 weeks exactly, right? Congrats on that marker. You always sound to be doing well. What kind of twisting is he thinking your are doing?

It's so nice to see these go! Helps you know that the outside is healing well---just have to remember there's four layers underneath that are still healing slowly---so don't be surprised if you feel like you have a rock inside there for a while.

Being allowed to bend over a bit more really frees you up and lets you do a bit more. Just don't get carried away---overdoing is a

Take care, @muckingaround, and keep us posted (as if I have to worry about that). We care.
 
Oh he doesn't think I am. He was just demonstrating picking something up from the floor from a seated position. He was okay with reaching down between my legs to do it, but that reaching done on the outside of my leg would be bad.

Another thing I was worried about was driving without breaking restrictions and they were very - meh close enough, as long as you can get in and out okay.
 
Good report! I wasn't cleared to drive with right leg op until 3.5 weeks. I would guess that left leg goes sooner.
Woohoo!
 
I woke up once last night, went to the rest room and rearranged my pillows to elevate my leg. I was awake make 15 minutes. That's it. That's like 11pm-6am. I think my appointment yesterday reassured me that my leg wouldn't snap off like a Barbie's if I shifted a centimeter in the wrong direction.
 
@muckingabout - that is awesome about the sleep. I know that was one thing I was sure looking forward to, a good night's sleep!! It makes all the difference, doesn't it? :sleeep:
 
And in case I haven't mentioned it, I will be dogsitting while they are gone. Spenser will have a blast. Their dog is Bismarck, a standard, smooth-coated dachshund and Spenser is a mini, long-haired
 
So he's going to propose in spite of the fact that you go commando?? Quite a guy! I see lots of fun things ahead for you and your family!!
