Well I walked for the first time in two months (without the boot) and I had planned on doing (T has her head on the key board trying to get my breakfast this is very annoying) an hour, but I decided that even the slightest twinge I would stop.
Well I got out of the car and I was limping. It was most disconcerting, because (now she is stuck between my chair and desk and is whining because she can't move) I hadn't expected to have any pain let alone a limp. So I decided that I was going to walk at least a half hour limp or not.
The limp never went completely away, but it started to feel better about ten minutes into the walk. So I stopped when I started to feel twinges that weren't part of the limp. we ended up walking for 37 minutes 1.9 miles (I know couldn't I have gone another tenth - well I didn't look at it until after I got in the car.)
So last night I did the exercise, which I thought would be a piece of cake. She told me to stand on the broken foot hold on to the wall and swing my other foot around. Well the first pass I didn't hold on to the wall and nearly went down. I just had no balance. I don't know if those exercises is to strengthen or if you (now she is on the keypad this is taking a little longer to write then normal) actual lose your sense of balance. Something I will have to check out. Tonight the stationary bike!!!
