Added 2021-04-01 21:31:24 +0000 UTCI was in the gym just a workin on my fitness, he's my witness. Which one is your favorite? In other news I had my 1st post-op doctor's appointment today, and he said everything looked great, but there was still a bit of swelling, so he advised 2 more weeks in compression and no exercising or strenuous activity. He said I can walk for exercise, but not to run or do any type of lifting. This is pretty much what I expected since recovery is generally said to be 1 month. I suppose I am always hoping to get an early pass for good health and following doctor's orders, but this time it looks like I'll have to follow the same rules as everyone else. The worst part of this whole recovery process has been sleeping on my back for 2 weeks. I'm glad that part is over!!! I'm not a back sleeper, so the first week I literally got no sleep. The 2nd week I got a little more sleep, but the urge to turn on my side was constantly there. I even figured out a way to turn my legs on their side while keeping my torso flat. However, over these past 2 weeks I decided the best way to sleep on your back (in case you ever have to) is to prop 3-4 pillows up on your headboard and then slightly turn your body and head at an angle. It feels better than being flat on your back.
