After I was on "modified bed rest" with a 1 lb weight limit for 4 months, then 2 weeks of complete bedrest and major surgery, I asked for PT and they said I didnt need it!!
I found an online program for a PT woman i like, she has private videos on YouTube to follow and then you can fb message in a private page for questions and encouragement. It helped me alot. Things that used to be simple were so hard, i started by just walking, working up to an hour a day at a brisk pace, which took me 4 months to get there. I was shocked by how long it took me to recover, even working hard at it! I seemed to get winded or my heart working overtime, or injured just so much easier than ever before. Its now been 2 years and I'm still not 100% back.
By the end of the day I passed out. Even though DH does all the work! Getting the wheelchair in and out of the car. Pushing me here and there. He's the one who should be exhausted! But he comes home and mows for an hour!
He's amazing.
