Annette, I did PT for 4 months. I had reached my goals and was told to continue my exercises at home and was released from PT. I am almost 7 months post-op and I am still doing exercises at home. They really help with the stiffness, especially the heel slides and the encumbent bike.

I started sleeping all night at 4.5 months in my bed, graduating from the recliner. The first few months are rough sleepwise. I did take naps during the day and after PT. I totally understand the "blah" feeling. That will pass.....it just takes time with this surgery.

God Bless you & praying for you.

@covidstinks2023 I appreciate your share and words of encouragement. I had the surgery because I know that I’ll be in a better space, in time. Continue to take care of yourself.
