Physical therapy going really well. Doing exercises on the leg press and with resistance bands. Warming up on the bike before sessions. Feels great to be riding, even on the lowest resistance level!
Also doing work strengthening my hip and spending time stretching my calf and hamstring. Everything feels quite tight but better after stretching.
Victories this week:
- Walking without crutches or brace
- Going to work with only one crutch
- Range of motion at 122 degrees
Knee looking great and swelling is mostly gone, as are the rainbow colors.
Count of friends with ACL surgery I never knew about is now 15 (!).
On another note, medical bills came in today. So far we have:
Surgery $16,000
Anesthesia $4,000
My share of these is about $1,500.
Ouch.
