This morning started off as any other Monday with a nice workout. :-)
We hit a tiny snag though. My left leg is swelling up a bit. Barry, other PT's and I all agreed to take it easy on weight bearing exercises today as to not upset it further. I talked my doctor about it this afternoon and he said, RICE and ibuprofen should do the trick and if not, an ultrasound will be in order. Despite not doing a lot of standing, I did get a nice workout in. We did arm and core exercises in the morning, slow walk with more support from the harness on the treadmill and a nice leasurly 9 mile bike ride after lunch.
After elevating my knee and taking some pills, my knee is a bit better so I am hoping to get back into the swing of things full strength on Wednesday.
After that fun morning, I got Jimmy Johns sandwich and a cookie since it's my birthday, I didn't want to cook and it sounded good. Also TBBT season 8 started tonight. Both episodes were funny as usual. Now I am watching some Bear football. Great birthday! :-)
