Starting over.

These last few weeks have been a bit discouraging. After a few weeks of light activity and absolutely no PT except for stretching, ultrasounding, and manual therapy I am now back to doing some basic PT exercises and biking with zero resistance. Holy deja vu! These are the same exercises I started when I was still on crutches except for back then I didn't have any pain with them.

I have been going over and over in my head how this happened. I was doing so fabulous and really thought I was being patient and careful. I look back at my posts and laugh that the only thing I was complaining about when I started running again were my shins. I was so worried that I was going to get shin splints - ha ha. Six weeks ago I did a 45 mile bike ride and was easing into running 10 miles a week and now look at me. Sad.

There are really only 2 possibilities. I either overdid it or I managed to re-tear something in my hip. My ortho surgeon and PTs both agree this is weird, but x-rays and images are all good. We are giving it 1 more week and if it is not getting better we will go in for more advanced imaging and injections and other fun stuff. Big problem is with everything done to my hip it is really hard to see with imaging if anything is wrong. The only good way to see is by going back in. 

I really want to be positive, but something doesn't feel quite right. It feels exactly how it did before the surgery, but worse.

Lame.

A year ago today, the world lost a pretty special soul. "Steve was a mischievous muse and an instrument of positivity and light. His quick wit and exuberance for the wonders of the world transformed this mundane plane of existence for all who crossed his path. He did not relegate art to specific times and places; he consciously created and consumed it every moment of his life."

"Cynicism will only overtake me at the point at which my capacity for wonder becomes blunted...so,...never!" \m/ - Spingry

AM: Plenty to reflect on while riding the bike this morning. When Steve first left the realm I was so inspired to "live the dream" as he was so often quoted as doing. Hell if I left the world with just 1 percent of the impact that man had on his community that would be a life well spent. All the changes in this past year and this injury deal has pretty much sucked the soul out of me so I needed this reminder of Steve's life to spur some more change in me. So in honor of Steve I am going to do and/or commit to doing 5 crazy things today that will either benefit others or benefit myself therefor indirectly benefiting others. (I just need to come up with them)
