I went back to work on Friday. I’ve been away seven weeks. They were very pleased to see me back – I think my absence has been quite tough on everyone. Since I don’t feel I should be driving in rush hour and, because I can’t get on the tube, my work are paying for cabs to take me to and from the office. I’m very lucky.
I’ve decided to put the gym on hold. I’ve been twice now and I don’t like the way my knee feels afterwards. It feels like it’s going to crack and is uncomfortable. I've only been doing a few minutes on the bikes and rowing machines but maybe it’s a bit soon to be going. My PT has suggested some leg strengthening classes which take place at the hospital once a week so I’m keen to find out more about that.
Today I bought some Bio Oil. It’s supposed to be good for scars. So I’m just starting using it – you have to use it for a minimum of three months so it could be a while before I can see any results. Apart from the one on my thigh the scars aren’t that bad really but I may as well give them the best chance of fading so I can dig out the denim shorts next summer.
Went out last night for Halloween. It was scary being in a busy bar and, after being pushed a few times, I sat down like Baby in the Corner and let the others get the drinks for me!
I'm sleeping in a brace because I worry about bending my knee in my sleep but hopefully soon I can say tatty bye to all of them ...
