Okay! I like Debbe had an apt today...6 week mark. Im actually 7 wks & one day...but who's keepin track!? 
hehehehe. It went well to my suprise...well, you know, the doubt we all have at this point. My correction w/the new xrays look GREAT! The Thorasic was near perfect & the Lumbar was at about 15*!!!!! I was soooo happy I actaully think I mutter out a "I love you!" lol I asked the 10000 questions I had and as always he took him time w/me. No PT....yet he said. I go back in 6 weeks & if Im not where "i should be" then, he said we would discuss. Just walk, walk, walk was the words he used. I checked on the treadmill, which he approved of, which is good seeing as Ive been using it for 2 weeks now! lol AND----this is the coolest part...my leg is less than 1/4 of an inch longer, so not as bad as it felt AND I DONT need to use my heal lift anymore. He says it will not do me any harm to go w/o...unless I really wanted to use it. I was like ahhhhh, no. Its really not my style, so I tossed it when I got home!! GOOD RIDENCE!!! AS far as height that I gained....he said I was 5 5 and 1/4 pre op but forgot to measure me before I left, but said I had to have picked up at least an inch to an ich & 1/2. Im gunna check for myself after this post!! I got the "ok" to twist slightly but not to over do it & to try things on my own until I feel resistance. Prety much what I've been doing this whole time anyway. And lastly....he will release me back to work after he see's me in 6 weeks. I was very upset about this! LOL Riiight!
Thats about it. It was a great day today & the weather here is beautiful! 61* right now! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take care everyone!!
