So it started off interesting I was picked up by an ambulance and there was 2 people already on it the seat I had to sit on was far too high and really uncomfortable for me as I haven't got a good knee bend so I went on a 20 minute journey in pain on arrival the physio department was right at the back of the hospital at least a 5 minute walk and it was the first time in a week I had done this length of a walk so it was a struggle so even before I got with the physio I was in pain!
I needn't have worried though as we did NOTHING well I say nothing he measured my knee bend and felt my knee!We then spent the other 25 minutes discussing my medical history which drives me mad why don't they know it already!Oh and guess what he had no idea what SC was!No big surprise there!
He said he didn't know how to deal with me really and he didn't want to leave me in too much pain but he also doesn't want me not to achieve more knee bend so its a catch 22 situation!
So he gave me a whole load of exercises and said do as many as you feel can without being in pain and I will see you in a week!It was all very rushed as he was only allowed exactly 30 minutes with me!
Then on to the ambulance again 6 of us this time 2 who were sat with knees touching each other!One old dear had us in absolute stitches about her toilet antics!Another old man was taking the piss out of her it was so funny!
So I suppose I should get on with my exercises!
Oh and he said to still avoid weight bearing for now!Oh and I forgot my bend is 55 degrees so it has only gone up 10 degrees in nearly 5 weeks!
