AM: Worst hip day yet! 1.5 hours at PT trying to get my right SI joint back into place. Surgery was cake compared to this experience. I guess an 11-hour work day on crutches really jacks your pelvis. I know I am doing too much right now, but I don't know what else I can do. Sugar fast is over. PT fed me watermelon sour patch things every time I cried. Pretty sure I had 42 of them. Now is not the time to give up sugar...

From here on out I have to put weight on the op side with every step even if it takes me a year to walk down the hall. No more hulas, no more weight shifting, and no more super crutching allowed!

PM: 10 minutes bike and hip stuff. Pain in the 5-6 range. :(

Well that is sucky! Oooooh I do love those watermelon sour patches. Yum.

So lame. It's so uncomfortable to get your pelvis in alignment without just having hip surgery. Sorry. Hopefully, now that you're in place, your PT will get easier and more effective. Maybe a glass of wine with your sour patch kids?

@Scott - Yes way sucky!

@Shelly - My SI joint was totally out! My PT had to get it back in with creative methods because of the limitations of my op hip. Saying I cried was an understatement it was more like a wail and a few screams. You should probably stop reading my blog because it will totally talk you out of surgery :)

@Allie - "It's a block of sugar." Ha!

Those watermelon sour patch kids really are delicious. I am so sorry you had a bad day!
