Sorry about the lack of an update last night. I was pretty tired and decided to just go right to bed. Yesterday was pretty similar to Day 4. I was still pretty sore and doing my exercises twice a day was a bit of a painful experience.
I did manage to start walking a little bit yesterday, with the assistance of the crutches. I didn’t feel any pain when I placed all of my weight on my left leg, which was a bit of a surprise to me. It’s still a slow process, and it takes me a long time to walk anywhere, but being able to do that seemed pretty significant to me.
I’m still trying to increase the time between taking pain pills, and I am only taking 1 pill every 6 hours now. I’m hoping I can stop taking those pills pretty soon, because I hate taking medicine.
I’m really looking forward to going to my next physical therapy session on Monday so I can see how I’m progressing.
