I was thinking about your posts. Another thing to keep in mind that you are so very early out from your surgery. Surgery of any kind is a huge assault on the body. Surgery that is this traumatic, even more so. I understand there is a push to PT from very early on. I hope you were able to come to an agreement with your therapist about what is reasonable, what will allow you to progress w/out anxiety and unneeded fatigue.

Fjkphx I can understand that it hurts after surgery its a fine line ,the muscles can stiffen up so quickly it is necessary to move them but not to the extent that they hurt all day after a session. As a patient you have to take as much as you can and the therapist has to stop when you say so.In order to get better it will hurt but shouldn't beyond when your body tells you Ive had enough for today.
