Doodles418, Thanks for the reply. I understand that despite doing everything right scar tissue builds, ROM isn’t always what we want and so many things dependent on a combination of physiology and PT. It sounds like you’ve done everything right so I’m hoping things work out better for you. I will push for more and sooner PT. Surgery is the 18th of April, but will not be surprised if they send me home since Saturday since it’s Easter weekend it’s Easter weekend and I won’t get my first PT until Monday. But I’ll see what I can talk them into. Being at 8 weeks and moving independently sounds pretty good. I imagine I’ll still be doing PT for months after the surgery. We have a once in a lifetime European river cruise paid for in mid-September and I sure hope to be ready for it by then.
Please let me know how the pool therapy is going. Keep up the good work. Donna
