Happy Birthday!
Just wanted to wish my favorite littlest sister a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
No pic, but got the second opinion on my knee & leg. And...OFFICIALLY...NO SURGERY for either!! YAY!!!
This wasn't an actual shot...just a small sipping amount...had to fit it in the picture. I had two celebrations! :)
PT
Today hurt like hell and the picture proves it! My knee issue has become secondary to a bigger issue. Today my physical therapist compared my leg to a corkscrew...not something you want to hear. All my muscles from the waist down are tighter then hell. For whatever reason, my right leg has taken on a mind of its own. My gluts, hip flexors, and quads are pulling everything in. My calves, tibia and ankles are pulling everything out...to almost a 15 degree difference...NOT good!
So, I have been ordered to orthodics, going to PT twice a week and doing an hour of exercises/stretches each day. When I want to really complain or not do my exercises, I simply think of the possible alternative: a surgery where they would cut through my tibia, move it to the correct angle and then screw it back into my femur. Will hopefully find out more in February at the new doctor.
