@izabel It sounds as if you are making the best you can of the situation, I applaud you for that. That's great that you are improving your leg strength. I am sure it is a lot of work, but it's worth it.

My SED and CRP levels were within limits last week and I coerced Surgeon in allowing me to touch toe walk with the walker. He wasn't well pleased ... but I have now managed to do 20 mini steps and 8 mins on the pedaler going full rotation. My legs are feeling much stronger and look better (my calfs had resembled turkey necks!). I am still on antibiotics. Next consultation/bloods on 5 February at which time, if bloods are stable, we will discuss Stage 2 ... hurray! I am not getting my hopes up but am trying to be positive on this long journey.
