Knee Woes 2

Just an update. Things were going great and after seeing the PT on Monday got to 8 miles a day mon, tues, and wed. Almost pain free except every couple miles needing a minute break. Then I went to my dads to help put a cap on the truck and was lifting it solo from the bed of the truck and twisted a little. I honestly forgot about the knee since I was feeling that good and just climbed in and lifted. It was 2 hours later when I realized what I did. I had to turn back at the mailbox when I went for my walk. I could almost weep.

The pain is present now, but reducing. I have to take 2-3 days off and then starting back at 5 miles. It should only be temporary and no real damage done, but will delay the progress. Honestly, it is as much mental right now as physical and I have not even got there yet. I fell like a teenage drama queen.

On the humorous side, I had to explain to my wife why I was shav.ing my leg for the KT tape
