I had to go in for early morning PT this morning at 7am. Just did some more basic stretches and added in a few very light strengthening exercises. Good bye crutches!!! Got the ok to begin some more weight bearing and could walk as long as I keep my aircast on. I have to walk pretty slow, but anything beats carting around those crutches. I have another PT appointment on the 27th, but probably won't have any new changes until my 4 week visit next week.
here are a couple of pictures. the scabbing has started to come off of the upper part of the incision and is healing up nicely. in the second picture, i'm only putting enough weight on my right leg to flex the calf muscle--or what used to be the calf muscle, anyway...lol.
