No more knee brace!

May 12, 2006 01:22

To day was the first day I got to walk around with out a brace or support of any kind for my leg. Yeah, I still walk a little funny and stairs are still somewhat of a problem but it has been only 3 weeks. The bandages are starting to fall off so I am starting to see the small incisions they made on my knee. Obviously, my calf and thigh muscles are still tight and feel like jelly at the same time. And of course there is tremendous tightness in my knee. I start physical therapy on Monday, the 15th. Now that will be a killer, but I am excited at the same time. So I had surgery on April 18th, only needed crutches for one week, and only needed to wear my straight leg brace for 3 weeks. My recovery is definitely way ahead of the game.
