physio 2:4

So, 4th session today, out of possible 6. Also today was the day for Finding Out How It was Going.

And, hurrah, it is Going Well! She is very pleased with the increased amount of movement I'm getting and the fact that it's less painful. So she is not going to refer me back to fracture clinic after all!

However because I'm still having trouble walking any distance she IS going to get me a referral to the orthopedic surgeons at Musgrave for them to have look and xray it, tho this might take a few months to happen.

In the meantime she says a couple more sessions with her and see how it goes from there. And i have to keep pushing it and ignore the pain. Damnit.

Did manage nearly 10 minutes on the cross trainer machine thingy tho! Then did some balance exercises which I am entirely crap at. Hence having to push the leg more and make it work. Also, since the foamy heel inserts she gave me are working well, she's going to order me more permanent ones.

Overall, pretty positive! It's definitely working better than it was before I went to her, even if it's still not Right yet, that's something.



ION, less shatteringly tired today, after sleeping for 3 hours when I got in yesterday, then being wide awake til 4am. Meh. Hopefully tonight's sleeping pattern will be more normal. Horrible cold has also abated.

Holiday already seems like it never quite happpened, now I mostly need to organise getting to Mollow and Leeda's wedding next weekend!

see, I was a Good Girl and asked about xrays! But she said it probably wouldn't help much now and the orthopedic guys would do it anyway.

um skype? no. I'm not really sure how it works ;p

Me too! It's about time ;) But going back to physio really seems to be helping.
