Glinda, Thoughts and prayers as you undergo your next step in recovery today. Rosemary
Hi Rosemary just thought I would update you on my appt with the orthopedic surgeon here in Eau Claire yesterday I got all and I mean all my stitches out of both legs and my hip and I never want to go through that again it hurt so bad I can be weight bearing on my left leg but not my right leg for 2 more months as it's not healed yet got rid of the big bukly braces but still have to wear the fuzzy braces on my feet so more progress yay
@glinda
WooHoo!! Hurray! This is WONDERFUL !
I know you will enjoy your new freedom:-)
Thank you for sharing.
Hugs,
Rosemary
Your welcome and I will keep you updated on my progress just to let you know my progress may slow down for a bit because the rehabilitation center that I am at is closing permanently and my social work from my insurance Inclusa is working on another place for me to go will let you know when I move and start physically therapy there but am still doing physical therapy here until they close
@glinda, I am happy that you have people working on getting you another place for you to go. I hope there is one in your area so that your friends and family can still come by. We, your Connect friends, will follow you anywhere:-)
Glinda, Now that your stitches oar out, do you think you will find some itch relief? And do you think there will be a change in the PT exercises or will they wait a while?
Today is rainy here, but warm. I have been chilled all day because I took a friend to her colonoscopy procedure, and I dressed for 62 outside, but not for sitting in a cold waiting room with a damp raincoat. You would think I would have learned how to dress for medical buildings by now!
Rosemary
@glinda I so agree with Rosemary. We are getting packed and ready to move with you to your new location. I'm praying that just the right rehab center will be found for you where you will get the care and treatment you so richly deserve. I'm so pleased to hear of the good progress you have made!

@glinda Great progress, a wonderful step forward, literally and figuratively.
Oooh, getting the stitches hurt? Arrrghhh. I'm sure you must have had many too.
Keep us informed, we are with you.

I sure hope so to as it's been over a month and a half now and I'm hoping to be able to be weight bearing on my left leg and hopefully get a different brace as that is part of my itching and the brace is to bulky will let you know what happens tomorrow after my 8am appt.
