Ugh! What a time I have been having over the summer. :scared0015:
As if workin, housekeeping, and caring for my father and grandfather were not enough... I wound up with a torn tendon in my right foot back in the spring. :sick0010:
I was placed in a boot on May 20th (the day before my birthday), and was in that, and non-weight bearing for three fulll months. For the last month, I was placed in an ankle brace and was allowed to go down to one crutch. As of last Tuesday, I am off crutches and I started physical therapy this week. Only a few days off crutches, and the foot and ankle are already starting to bother me. I'm trying to be careful with it, and keep it iced down in the evenings. Right now, I am soooo discouraged, but I am hoping the PT will help. :confused0024:
I will keep you updated, and I want to get back on the boards... I miss everyone. :ashamed0003:
:hugs:
