@contentandwell things are going pretty well, I started a new thread when I reached the 3 week point. I'm at 116 and 2 at exactly 3 weeks. I do very much like my PT. He's having me do regular stair walking now (like a normal person) and I can do it slowly. The scar is healing and it just has one scab left at the bottom waiting to fall off. Most interesting and effective has been the lymphatic massage, which has really gotten the swelling down. I can actually see the bones in my ankle and foot! It doesn't look much different from the other leg although of course there is still some swelling in the knee itself. Thanks for your concern.
