So I was feeling ontop of the world, Physio was going well and I was able to wear my trainers for most of the day and get about the house without crutches.
I had a slight stumble which stretched out my achilles and after the initial scare I realised there was no pain and my movement had improved… Triump out of Tradegy maybe?
Last night I went to my 4th session of Physio, Sue got be going some light work on the Bike (No resistance) and also on the stepper. It was great to do a little bit of cardio work it’s been age’s and doesn’t my body know it!
My walking has improved no end, but Sue was concerned that i was unable to get any bend in my Left knee when walking. So She got me to try and walk with bent knees on the parrall bars, whiich I could do while supporting myself. I had one try at doing it unsupported but I felt something give alittle - which scared the hell out of me!
Sue worked on the scar area, but noticed that it ws extermely red, which it had been for a few days now.It may be a slight infection or just some inflamation, so I’ve a course of anti-inflamitaries to take over the weekend and if it’s not any better by Tuesday she’ll refer me to the Dr’s to get some anti-biotics!
Feeling the slight give last night has had a negative effect mentally on me though! Although I have no pain my walking has regressed back to where I was 2 weeks ago, I think because I’m scarred of re-rupture ( although highly unlikely).
I’m off to London on Sunday as It’s my Dad’s Bday. He’s a massive rock fan so we’re off to a gig at the Astoria. I’ll be wearing my removavle cast to be safe, but may only take one crutch!
Back to work Monday, at last 
- I’ll post again after Tuesday Physio
Cheers
