Yesterday I was finally able to drive. However, with the few things that I had to do, I was so worn out that I passed out when I got home. Wearing the brace and walking just takes up so much of my energy that I can only go for so long then I just pass out from exhaustion. Learning how to walk again is not an easy task. I have rehab all week, then I start back to work. Hopefully they will be able to teach me some tactics on how to walk a little more normally with the brace locked. It's not easy but at least I'm on my feet again. I have also managed to get myself completely off of the pain medication. I have not taken any in about five days. I don't want to go back to work and feel the need to take pain meds. It's illegal with my job and it would make me too sleepy to drive home.
Other than that, no new news.
