Day 5 (week 1)
This was by far the worst day so far after surgery.
here's my stats:
Pain-high
miserable-high
sleep-low
eat-medium
weight gain-high
water retention-high
any work-low
*i didnt sleep last night because of pain coupled with my little dog princess being too active:)grrr....


The day started well, with me going to physio = Lynette
She said im a great patient, i was able to to quad and hamstring isometric contractions. The range of momevement= =- 75 degrees

i went to sister at doctors room to change (and clean) on of the plasters, there was dried blood on it!)

Definition Wikipedia: Isometrics are done in static positions, rather than being dynamic through a range of motion. The joint and muscle are either worked against an immovable force (overcoming isometric) or are held in a static position while opposed by resistance (yielding isometric).

These contractions are done while i sit or lie in the bed.
