Went to see another physio this morning. I like him, and I think I shall stick with this one. He specialises in post op rehab...which will come in handy very soon. I want to do what I can to strengthen my VMO before I have the surgery next month...less than 6 weeks to go now.
I have an new exercise to do 3 times a day and I must tape my knees for 8 hours every day. I got taught a new way of taping, and it actually feels like a better taping method. For a start I'm using less tape and I have more movement, whilst it's still giving me that support.
Scott (physio) also massaged the outer knee to try and release some tension, it's been feeling awfully tight lately and been causing me a bit of pain.
Pain scale today was a bit high. I was kind of expecting it though, however I thought it would have occured a few days ago, directly after doing 3 days straight of work. I know I'm not doing that again though for a long time, so I'm not really stressing about that.
I do have work tomorrow, but it should be alright. It's an afternoon shift and there'll be more people working with me so it should be better.
I caught up with Chris for lunch after the physio appointment and then came home and did some housework. I fell asleep afterwards, which didn't surprise me...last nights sleep sucked so bad. I just could not get comfortable at all.
Now, I'm just settling in for the night, and I think it'll be a semi early one too. Might pop on some tv or something. Oh and straighten my hair, forgot to do that last night.
Bye for now
