Sounds like you've got some stuff going on...good luck with all that. My cholesterol is a little high, too. I need to EXERCISE which is a little hard on one foot. I'm still on one foot, thanks for asking. I have another week of this before I graduate to crutches on about the 26th. This was a pretty big deal, but I am in less pain than I was 24/7 for more than a year, so it'll all be worth it in the end. |

I can't give blood I'm on high blood pressure pills.

Yeah I'm sure it will all be worth it in the end.. There is nothing worse then when your in pain all the time...
Yeah the exercising will also lower cholesterol too... So that means the exercise bike of mine that is gathering dust this weekend will be brought out of it's corner....lol Since the specialist I seen said walking was high impact and suggested that I stay away from that and do the bike instead... So looks like I will have one more thing to sell my treadmill... |

I'm thinking a recumbent bike... |

But then it might be harder on your heels.. I actually had surgery on the ankle...the bottom of the foot and heel was the symptom of nerve constriction not the problem. That's why this is such a huge recovery - I basically had my ankle reconstructed. |

Yeah you will have to make sure what your limits are as far as any kind of exercise...I know the bike I have is one where you sit and your legs are in front of you therefore most of the movements are in the knee area but low impact. |

Yeah...I'll have to have some physical therapy and will have to figure out the best route to recovery. That's why I'm doing 100% what I'm supposed to. This practice puts back together most of the pro athletes in Houston so I figure they can get me back in tip top shape if I follow their directions. Only one chance to heal right and I'm doing it! |

On that note...my exciting day 15 comes to a close and I'll say
GOODNIGHT TEXAS! |

That is the only way to do it the way they tell you to....So far even though what the doctor I went to about my knees at first I thought no way that will not stop the pain...I was proved wrong His way has worked way beyond what I thought it would without meds...that I have to take that has other effects on your organs...
