Well seen the Physio again yesterday. Still got to keep the sling on but he has given me three more stretching exercises to do and will see me again in two weeks.
Still not allowed to lift my arm up un aided so all the exercises are with the aid my good arm
He's saying two more weeks in the sling. He says it's a certain protocol they have to follow which allows my bodies cells to grow scar tissue over the artificial ligament, and if pushed too fast it can set me back so it's just a case of waiting and doing as I'm told for once.
Next visit will be to see the surgeon next Tuesday, this will be five and a half weeks since the op.
It would be good if he was to say I could ditch the sling then. I would then feel like it's getting somewhere and when I can get to drive again I can get myself out and about more.
