Eval was totally uneventful. He was distracted and disinterested, exactly like on the phone. Only real issue was he said therapy was until I could drive myself to outpatient. ""Ummm, no, therapy is for two weeks. Period. Then I will be going to my private PT."
Nothing major ... Nothing unexpected. Just them trying for all they can get. He did say he would need a script from my Dr to continue as outpatient. "Umm I have that, thank you. I will only need you to discharge me from in home therapy, for insurance reasons." He sighed and said, as he was half way out the door, "we'll discuss that next week." And...he was gone! LOL
Stupid, waste of his time...and ours, really. Didn't give me anything I didn't know or expect. Didnt give me anything acceptable. Everything was typical tkr exercises; leg raises, lateral leg stretches, mini squats at counter, marching, raised foot lunges, tipey toe stretches. Yup, mostly everything not to do week 1! Classic...typical. He was surprised I could lift my legs alone. Hun?
He left and I looked at Bill and said, well, that was a waste! Right in cue, he said, " what? He gave you some really good stretching exercises" Ummmm, yup, momma lost it! I am so swollen I can't bed my knees without painfully forcing them. I am the color of an egg plant from mid thigh to ankles....and ou think i should be doing 3 reps of 10, 4 times a day? Ummmm, lets just say the rest of the afternoon was rather quiet!
Gave him some assigned reading and quizzed him later on. He's now on the same page! For crying out loud we had this convo multiple times over the past month! I am not cowering to those bullies. Peroid! I am shocked how quickly he reverted to mainstream cowering and following orders! Dissapointed, really.
