I’m Free!

Next week I will be four months post op, my how time flies!  I have been doing really well.  No long term negatives from the run on Sunday, just some achy muscles that got a rude awakening!  I went for a 45 minute bike ride with a friend on Tuesday that included one short but rather steep hill that was a little challenge for the glutes.  Then on Wednesday I had my FINAL physio session WAHOOOOO.

The final physio session was a repeat of the physical assessment I had 3 or 4 weeks ago to compare the results.  Everything has improved fairly significantly in that short time!  My flexion is equal to, if not more than my non-op side although still has a ‘pinchy’ end feel at the moment.  I have more internal rotation than external rotation which is totally bizarre and muscle tone and balance have improved too.  I’ve been left with my gym exercises (I will scan these and upload shortly) and will just gradually increase cycling/jogging distances.

I will be support crew for my friend at the Graperide this year as I won’t be able to compete, but it will still be an awesome weekend!  Just three weeks to go.  I have also got a holiday weekend booked at the beginning of May to visit Mum and Mike.  My best friend will be coming with me and we have a snowboarding lesson/day organised as well as Mum and I participating in a duathlon! I have heaps to look forward to at the moment so I am just buzzing
