Pt update

Been in therapy for a good three weeks now…been going at it pretty aggressive..stationary bike, treadmill, stretches, toe raises(or something –standing up on the toes), theraband stretches, one legged stands while on a small trampoline catching a ball, stand on bad leg and bend over and touch spot on floor, etc, etc, If I could only do the toe raise with my injured leg I would be good to go–but I can’t seem to get off the ground at this point… I’ve got to get this because I’m trying to get released back to work by this time next month…that will be 21 weeks that I have been off the job…unbelievable…Oh well been off this long–going broke so we said screw it–we are headed to Rosemary Beach area of FLa tomorrow for the week….take it easy Kevin

Kevin - good to hear from you. I still can’t get my heel off the ground either. I’m commuting to work daily on my bike (10 miles)..and that feels great…but only 1000’s of heel raises are going to strengthen that calf enough to get that heel off the ground! Have fun in FL…that sounds like a good time.

Hi Kev,

Good to hear from you and your PT progress.

I am at the same point as you, just can’t get the left heel of the ground, no matter what I try it won’t budge.
Attending PT at the local hospital twice a week and other than the heel raise everything is going good, cycling to work 3 times a week now.
Looking forward to my holidays also, Bremen in Germany on 30 June for 7 days and then home to Scotland for 4/5 days camping.
Enjoy your trip to the beach and continue the excercises !

Johnk :)
