4 Weeks after Surgery

Okay, so here is my status:

Walking - not normal yet, but getting better.

Bike - I am allowed to ride a stationary bike for 10 minutes.... and I can pedal pretty fast.

High Heels - Not yet!!!

Bending - 135 degrees

Full extension - YES!

Bruising - GONE!

Normal Household Duties - I am back to normal, and not getting tired standing on my leg.

Stairs - I am starting to take each stair with only one foot.

Sleeping - I still cannot curl up like I would like, but I am sleeping much easier.

Scar - It is healing quite nicely... using vitamin E!

Swelling - There is still some swelling and I am taking Alleve each day.

Physical Therapy - So far so good..... doing balancing, step ups, and working on control of my quad muscle.
