Are you doing PT with a professional or just on your own?

PB?

Piss bucket

Piss bucket

LOL.. Stacy ditched that thing on the quick... little too quick actually because I pissed in an ice water late one night!

I figured you meant "Party Bus". We are keeping that (or might sell my half of this one, and get a newer one).

Gonna sell the limo pretty soon.

Local LHC? Which office? I used Lakeside PT, Dr Brittany Brown. Pool and gym therapy - all helpful for me. But, we're all different. Glad you're proceeding.

BTW, a piss bucket at night is much better than tripping, crashing and burning while trying to walk to the throne in the pitch dark at night. Just sayin'.

Progress is progress, congrats. Taking a stand up shower after 4.5 months gotta be an accomplishment at the least.

Now I'm old...at least feeling. Was a young pup with a cane, 27.

None of us heal like we did, but ol' RD is moving along pretty good.

Be jumpin' rope in no time

Yeah I think my days of "gettin low" on the dance floor are probably behind me.. LOL

Now I'm more focusing on "can I step into a boat without busting my ass" goals.

So, they make you walk a certain way, or practice curling your toes
Do you have any neuropathy after the break, or is that all good? That tingling or itchy thing isn't so bad, but numbness sucks.

 

[BajaMike]

Wound is still open unfortunately

Did you drive with your left foot? That would be weird......

No she just did this light massage thing that got rid of swelling amazingly quick. Then she did range of motion tests, and was pushing and pullin and rolling.. etc.

She said it was gonna hurt later, I said I didn’t think so because it was pretty minor.. Shit hurts now though a lil! Lol

It's pretty wierd, we always think the pain from therapy will be muscles hurting. Turns out, all the stuff that holds the muscles gets angry. It's good you can finally get into therapy. They can point out things you don't even see, and help correct them before it wrecks something else...like walking favoring one side, or a "Gangsta' lean"

 

[Go-Fly]

Therapy? I thought you were going to a shrink to get your fucking head straight, maybe later.

Congrats Dave! Long recovery, I’d say the worst is over. Being on your feet has to be satisfying.
