So it has been a while since I have last checked in a written a blog. In short I am still doing physical therapy, and since the disease is back my leg has been still sore and I still do have a limp when I walk. At PT they have also notice that I have tendinitis in my knee ligaments from me walking and standing on it for so long while it is bent and not straight. One thing the PT told me to do that is helping with that and is relieving lots of pain in my leg, is giving myself a friction massage where it is sore, so basically pushing down as hard as I can a rub it until I feel pain, rub it until the pain goes away and then do it again every few minutes. Since I have started doing that and having them do that at PT, my knee has been feeling great!
Well my next appointment in Pittsburgh is in September and I will need to get a MRI done to see what it looks like. I am going to request to see if it is possible that I could do radiation treatment, like they would do with cancer, to see if it would kill the disease without surgery.
