| Blimey some interesting stuff in those last few posts. Makes me feel even more fortunate. I went to the Consultant today 5 weeks after leaving hospital. He was amazed how well I have mended.
I am now allowed to build up to 100% weight onto the broken femur. He doesn't think the PCL cruciate ligament is ruptured now or if it was it's sorted itself. The plate and screws have to stay in the shoulder for now as there isn't any sign of calcium building up between the two parts so have to go back in 6 weeks for more x rays. Was hoping I could get them out asap as they do cause a lot of discomfort. Can't understand why I have lost movement in 3 of my toes as I can curl them down but not up. Leaving for now to see if it improves with walking.
Physio starts next Thursday! Bought a multi gym and looking forward to getting the Trek on the rollers again! Got no thigh or calf muscles so plenty of work to do.
As for a goal I was thinking the Etape du Tour next July but quite frankly I think that is a bit hopeful so may settle for something smaller in this country.
Unfortunately Crunchy I was to blame. One accident in 5 years, not even come close to one before and it was my fault. Otherwise I would be looking forward to a nice pay out. As it is I'm looking at a hike in insurance and probably prosecution by the police.
Oh well I'm still here.  |
