Yesterday was my most excruciating day, but I had to force my leg through PT because if I don't, the muscles try to twist my leg back to where it was and it gets all twisted and contorted.
So yesterday, PT was barfingly painful, but the only thing that would help.
Today, thanks to all of the PT yesterday, I am much more comfortable and have a modicum of mobility, which is a HUGE improvement.
So today I'm being very diligent with PT. I can do almost all of the exercises, not voluntarily, I need to use a strap to guide my leg through the movements, but I couldn't do most of them at all a few days ago, so that's a big win.
PT is the only thing that is helping keep the insane swelling down, otherwise my leg puffs up like the Stay-Puft marshmallow man's.
I'm also taking "walks" with my crutches from the bathroom to the living room, so about 10 feet away, but that's also HUGE progress. I was barely able to get back from the bathroom without passing out, so little partial weight-bearing strolls around the living room feel like a major win.
I've always done a lot of PT, but for 2023 it's going to basically dominate my year.
