It is really kinda odd being half fixed. I am working on my left to build its strength up. And then yet I have to deal with my right hip giving out. I do notice that since about week 9 or 10 that it just hurts all the time. I can block it out but there are times when it flares up. It really stinks.
I have been enjoying doing the PT exercises that were sent home with me. They all are going well except the exercise where I lay on my back, bring my right knee to my chest and let the left just fall down. For me the muscles are really tight so it just hangs in mid-air. I must look kinda strange or that I do it on purpose but it really can't go any further. Well, anyway, I have been noticing this pulling in my left knee when I do this stretch. I sure hope it is just because my muscle is so tight. The other day I had this urge to want to go for a jog. Funny for me because I have been or wanted to be a runner. But I just felt really good and wanted to! I also am going up and downstairs normally. I even decided to see if I could go up without using the hand rail. Success and amazing how stable my left hip felt. This is all new for me. I did notice a difference in the left and right for sure. The right felt so shaky on the inside.
I am definitely taking advantage of this no restrictions. I am starting to slowly get back into cleaning. After 3 months I will say that I do get my choice. I picked our bathroom. Not perfect but a whole lot better. It makes makes me smile to know I am back.
