Not much new to report. I guess that's good. I have been venturing out in public more without my cane, so that's a plus. I noticed that going to the gym was no longer causing me discomfort and difficulty walking afterwards. So today I ramped up the repetitions and weights a tad, and I am back to square one-- wished I had had my cane to use when leaving the gym today! I went back to physical therapy for a tune-up. My feet have been killing me since I have been so much more mobile. We decided that it could be from a redistribution of weight after my leg bones returned to their normal position (see "before" and "after" x-rays), and my feet have to readjust. I've been getting ultrasound treatments which have helped tremendously, but the old feet are still very problematic some days. Because of my foot pain, I have quit doing my treadmill walking for balance, so hopefully I won't lose much of that progress. May have to see a doctor if the foot pain persists because it is definitely slowing down my progress. I also needed some stretching of my hamstrings. I think I had slacked up on some of my exercises thinking I did not need them anymore, so I was given a couple more to do and told which of my old ones that I needed to be more diligent about. I still see small advances every week; they are just not very dramatic.
