I am at 5 1/2 months and had no bruising however yes, my skin was very sensitive to touch and I had to wear sweat pants for what seems like forever. I was taking 900 mg Gabapentin at bedtime but am weaning off to see if it help with the neuropathy. My ROM is 115 and with the band can pull it to 123. I am to where I can do pretty much what I want however if I overdo which I do many times my leg will hurt for several days after ie...rode my bike 4 miles Sunday, stretched my leg and walked about 3000 steps as it was a quieter day. It's Tuesday and I'm still paying for it. I'm told all this is normal but it is frustrating for sure not being able to do the things I want. Hopefully by December (will be 13 months out) I'm good as I'm going to Universal and there is much walking. Keep doing the PT and the nerve issues will subside. You can take Gabapentin for that but keep in mind it must be weaned off of and not just stopped.
