Good morning everyone. How has your summer break been? It has been pretty good here.
Onto my knee progress. This is going to be a short post, but good news!
I found out last week I can’t walk with my brace unlocked… but today I was told by the head physical therapist that I could walk with my brace unlocked to 45 degrees! (Though my brace goes by intervals of 10, so it’s at 40 degrees now) AND…. AND!!!! (Yes it’s THAT exciting) I was told do to my Nu-Step (recumbent bicycle machine) workout WITHOUT my brace on my leg!!!! WOOOHOO!!! It went very well. At level 3, I did 1079 steps in 10 minutes!
I also have gained a few degrees in my knee hyperextension measurement (about 3 degrees) and I have gained about 9 degrees in my flexion measurement! I wasn’t gaining any progress with either measurement for a week.
