So far so good. The real test is when the cast comes off. But I'm sure it will be fine and improve my walking. And be able to walk without pain hopefully. Because I really like going for walks.

Do the exercises prescribed.
Your leg will be atrophied when the cast is removed. It probably will be jittery when you first put weight on it. This is normal, and nothing to worry about.

I'm pretty used to having jittery legs. Have worn leg braces most of my life. I've had PT on them for years. There's really nothing all that new about this. Probably the hardest part will be getting used to it being more aligned and operating a little better.

That would need to be changed to 2013 for me. That's the year it all began. As a matter of fact I made one of the last posts on a forum that went permanently offline. It's been quite a ride on all those different forums. Got to know a lot of people. It's mostly been a positive experience.

That's why I wanted the surgery done and the recoop to take place this time of year. Hasn't been raining enough though for good stay in weather. I still get out 2 or 3 times a week. But now out of school and laid up I'm enjoying lazing about. I'm sure the novelty will wear off soon enough.

Rolling through downtown. Just finished some lovely NY pizza and got a scoop of rocky road at the little store next to it. Quiet friday night. Tiny bit of drizzle.
