Long Over Due Update 9-2-10

Wahoe! I'm back in Utah and have my life back. I am about 6 weeks post- op.  I am going to physical therapy at Tosh in Sandy, Ut. I like the facility and especially like the athletic trainer. He is helping me to keep my knee over my foot so that my knee doesn't cave in, making me more prone to re- injuring my knee. I did the stationary bike the other day for 50 minutes. It felt so good! The only thing I'm having a problem with still is stairs and uneven ground. I can't wait for a time when the word stairs have no significance whatsoever in my daily life. My physical therapist said I only had to come in once a week from now on. I remember from my first surgery I was still going 2-3 times a month for the first 3 months. So I decided I still want to go 2 times a week because I learn so much about my knee and soak up so much knowledge when I'm at rehab. I'm diligent enough to make it to the gym and do some therapy by myself but I still feel like I get more out of my gym time when I'm with my physical therapist. OH! and how could I forget. I have full range of motion! *smiles*
