I did my first full set of reps with the exercises the physical therapist gave me last night. That was hell. I took a nice hot shower afterward, thinking that would help ease the muscles and joints… and even remembered to take Advil before going to sleep too. I think I got a total of MAYBE 1 hour of sleep. I was in a lot of pain. This is definitely going to be a LONG road to getting back to semi-normal.
