14 WEEK CHECK UP.
This morning was my 14 week check up following surgery. It went well...I guess. My physical therapist is happy with my leg, but wants me to 'stick to the current weights without adding any' for THREE WEEKS!!! WTF!? I don't get it. I did exactly what he asked me...added small amounts of weight in a timely manner. Sometimes I was able to add weight every couple days...sometimes I didn't add weight for a week or more. I am up to 200lbs on the leg press...he was a bit upset because its much more then I weigh and I should only be at that weight at this point. No offense, but why didn't he give me a 'cap' then?!
I told him I am sick of riding the bike 45mins a day, five days a week. His response? Ride it longer. SERIOUSLY?!?!
My surgeon seems VERY happy with my progress. I am still about 3-4 weeks, or more, ahead of schedule. They claim release after this surgery is usually 9-12 months...I'm on course, per Dr. Coward, to be released at 6 months. Woot, woot!
