The story begins at Day 1. The short version: I fell over skiing and have ruptured ligaments in both knees. I've now started into the physiotherapy programme.

Um, what on earth number day am I writing about?

Are you going to continue to alternate, or will future appointments all be with PhysioLady2? Or will it simply depend on who is available?

My sympathy for all of it. In particular, the three hours a day bit. I'm on ear drops once or twice a week and really resent the comparatively tiny 20 minutes that they take up.

Appointments-wise I think it'd depend on who was around. But my next appointment seemed to be booked in with PhysioLady2 without the receptionist mentioning it, so maybe that trend will continue. I don't really mind either way; it's kind of useful getting two different perspectives, in a way!

Have you worked out yet which question to ask so that you can tell which of the physioladies always lies and which always tells the truth (and which door leads to a tiger with a gun)

I read the start as 'earth day number', and got mildly confused about where the aliens came in.

Can you write LJ/read/etc. while being iced? Or is that already when this happened?

I like the idea of crutches as warning-to-idiots!

earth day number

Yes, on reflection that wasn't one of my best sentences :-)

I can read/write LJ while being iced, so long as I've already eaten my breakfast, careered through my email, and done all the other things that are getting relegated to the during-ice window! Admittedly, last night's ice activity was watching a bit of a documentary on the Antikythera Mechanism, which probably doesn't really constitute essential :-)

I wonder if you share a PhysioLady with my aunt, who lives near you and has recently had a knee replacement?

Your muscles sound rather more civilized than mine. My shoulder is definitely still in the "NO! SHA'N'T! WON'T!" sulky toddler phase, despite good drugs ("we go sleepy bye bye now, but we'll wake up and scream the house down the moment you try to do anything fun") and very gentle physio. I am only on day 10 of the new vastly not-improved version of the injury though, so it's fairly inevitable I guess.
