Good for you that you got through it. That's encouraging. For some reason my knee area is killing me, I hope not literally but you never know. Right now I have an ice pack on it, managed to get some sleep, my dear husband massaged my leg (not my hip area) a little and that felt good. If he's not too tired I'll ask him to give me a leg massage today -- he's also handicapped, had hip surgery, the surgeon fouled up and he doesn't want to go through the painful aftermath again, which is one reason I decided to go through with this to show my husband it can be done. But it's hard. And of course, I hope it works. The physical therapist is coming again today -- I'll see if he can give me a printout of the exercises. Take care. Thanks for communicating.
