I woke up today feeling much better than I did yesterday.\u00a0 I had one big cramp-up overnight and had to get up one time.\u00a0 I slept mostly on my back though somewhat on my side (Involved knee \u2018up\u2019).\u00a0 I still have extra swelling in my leg and the weird pain in my left pectoral when I stand up, but no more light-headedness.\u00a0 High blood pressure & fast pulse from yesterday are also relieved dramatically.\u00a0 I also realize that I forgot to take my muscle relaxant last night and decide that I\u2019ll just stay off of those too.<\/p>\n
As I\u2019m writing this at 7:00PM I haven\u2019t had to use any pain meds today.\u00a0 I\u2019m starting to switch over from lethargy to restlessness.\u00a0 I will be very glad to get out of the leg immobilizer.<\/p>\n
My morning physical therapy went well.\u00a0 I will stick with these same exercises 2x daily until my next PT session at Tria on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
I just tried to take a shower.\u00a0 I thought I was finally feeling good enough to do it, but once I got out of the immobilizer and the Tubigrip and walked in to the bathroom, my hamstring started cramping up too much and I had to abort the mission…maybe tomorrow?<\/p>\n
Evening PT and icing went well.\u00a0 I straightened the immobilizer a bit and also made it a bit tighter; maybe it\u2019ll be more comfortable sleeping that way?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
