I just wanted to post for a minute and let you all know that things are not progressing very well, but I am scheduled for Physical Therapy tomorrow bright and early so hopefully they can get me on the road to recovery... I'm trying to stay positive but its pretty difficult, just ask my poor wife, she deserves a medal for putting up with me! This has been the longest month of my life, but this to shall pass, so they say.

I will let you know how it goes.

Later.

I went to the PT today and he worked me over pretty good. It looks like I have a nuroma but he wants to treat it to see if we can knock it out with the physical therapy as apposed to surgery... I am NOT hip to surgery, so I will do the PT therapy and I even get to do some pool running starting Friday. I have to say that it has been less painful today since my first treatment this morning, so I am hoping that it is a good sign of healing for the future. I just hope my darn insurance will pay for it cuz if it doesn't I probably won't go, funds are pretty tight right now;( I will update after Friday and let you know how it goes. We have decided to go to St. George anyway, who knows depending on how the next few weeks go I might even give it a try;)

 

See ya Friday.

40 minutes pool running and then other 15 minutes mimicking like I'm riding a bike in the pool and then 5 minutes just walking in the pool frontwards and then backwards. I got pretty winded when I was pool running but at least it felt like I was working out for a change, after the pool workout the PT worked me over pretty good on my foot and then ultrasound and E-Stem with some Ice after that.

See ya Tuesday.
