Hi Dixie! So glad that all went well! Ouch! I am avoiding PT myself...maybe I need to follow your example! Continued good thoughts and prayers heading your way...hugs...Debbie
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the surgery went well! Do what the PT says. My husband tore his rotator cuff...not enough for surgery, but the therapy had horrible pain and the PT says pain always comes first!
ReplyDeleteWe're behind you cheering your on...when you feel down...remember all us Texas Gals are cheering you on....
ReplyDeleteWell Dixie sweetie, you will be up to speed and back to normal before you know it. Just do what the therapist tells you to and it will be find, just don't do like me and hit her when she forces your knee back...lol..Bless her heart, I didn't mean to, it was just a reflex when she shoved the knee back farther than I could stand. I did apology and she excepted and picked at me from then on.
ReplyDeleteWill be thinking about you and keeping you in my prayers.
