week 14
11/12/2010
Hi All ,
Havent been back to see my PT since my last post , added to being stuck indoors a lot due to the snow, so theres not much to report .
Still struggling on the calf raises , as i said the last time the next time i see the PT he expects me too be able to do 3 x 15 of them , i have over a week to go before that appointment and I can manage a few at a time , but there is probably still a fear there to push it too hard that is holding me back .
To be honest I think in my head i thought I was futher down the road to recovery than I really am .
Haven’t got back to work yet , so i havent been on my feet too much , so I think this lead me to believe I was ok . So the other evening I went to a shopping mall with my kids and we where only there for 1hour (1.5 at the most) and by the end out it I had a stinging pain in my AT and wanted to get out of there ASAP……. no swelling but that was probably down to it not being “too much” on it .
Plus getting a lot of pain in the top part of my foot ,all on the side of my little toe. The tendons that run down to my toes are not getting enough movement maybe ?
Plus , dont know if this is connected but the area around my scar is SO itchy its unbelievable .
Plus I stepped over one of my kids toys and as i was bringing my AT leg over my leg obviously turned sideways as the corner of the sofa connected with the AT directly and HURT .
Apart form that , I think things are coming along slowly now , but coming along nun the less.
Take care all
Keep the faith
Phil
