My thighs are feeling the machine work from yesterday, but not terribly. I just wish I could get the bend better - it still feels so tight! I have quit trying to "test" it at night because it's always swollen then (or at least it feels like it is, but doesn't look it).
I've been massaging the scar several times a day with the oil, and I can really see a lot of difference in how it looks. I weighed myself this morning and was kind of astonished to find out that I have gained nothing, in spite of eating anything I want, and being basically a slug for the past month. I guess healing uses a lot of calories - but I better get the random eating under control before it does start to matter again. Of course, I do expect to be adding swimming to my exercise routine (tomorrow!!!).

One other little note:
Yesterday, on the hamstring machine, I felt a clicking in the knee, when moving both up and down. I asked the therapist about it and he said that it might go away but some people "will never again be able to sneak up on anyone", but even that is normal. So I guess we will just see what happens as time goes by.
I keep finding myself going longer and longer between pain medication. It's 3:30 p.m.and I have had nothing today - but it's time.
