The PT guy was pretty good. He didn't try to push me too far for today, and rather than saying "you must do 50 reps of this exercise every day", he said "your goal is 50 reps every day but do what you feel you can reasonably do". He liked what I did to stand up (putting my lift chair upwards, and then pushing myself up the rest of the way using the armrests), and he liked my walker technique. He had me walk around inside the house and we covered all but one room before my stamina gave out. He said I did more than he thought I'd be able to do, given how little I could do for the last few months before surgery.
The only thing he said that was upsetting, was that I shouldn't ice for more than 20 minutes at a time and only a few times a day if that.
I told him how helpful icing is to me. F was listening to all this and said that pretty much the guy was saying, "our company policy is to not encourage icing" but that also, subtly "I don't actually agree and you gotta do what you gotta do". I hope that F's interpretation was correct because I am going to continue icing. I draw the line at quitting icing. Given how helpful it has been for me, and how much it helps my range of motion, I'd be nuts to cut back on it like that.
Anyway, he gave me exercises to work on, and tomorrow I have PT again since they want to get at least two PT sessions done for the week. He is sending a subordinate in to do the sessions with me tomorrow. He says I should get up and move around every hour, even if it is just to walk 6 feet and back, and I see the reasoning and suppose I could do that.
