10:25 am - Will I ever get used to this? This back brace is wild. Can't bend at the middle any more, of course, which is strange but I can get used to that I think... but the sensation of being upright will take me a while. My muscles doth protest! I need to figure out a way to exercise them and make them strong under the brace. I really can tell when I take the thing off at night, and sleeping is distinctly uncomfortable (no way I can sleep in the thing though, and I suppose that would be bad for me anyways!).
I also need to kick up my PT exercises for my legs and arms again, now that they are adequately braced. I finally found the diagrams yesterday so will get them going!
Now if I can just get those ring splints. It really sucks to have your hubby ask you to scratch his back, and you do so and dislocate a finger in the process. How romantic... Current Mood: melancholy
