Day 34, and weight bearing has been a godsend. I've only been able to stand on it for a week now and that has made so much of a difference. Screw the two crutches crap. I'm using one crytch for long distances, and for most stuff at home I'm not even using a crutch. Yesterday was the first day back at work so that's a big milestone. I stood on it most of the day and had PT directly after work and as expected I lost a little range of motion due to a little swelling. Today the swelling seems to have gone down, although I slept like complete garbage last night. I'm not sure what it was but I was exhausted from work and just couldn't get settled. I hope tonight is much better. Progress wise I'm down to PT 2 days a week and can bend my knee regularly past 120 degrees and I have enough range of motion to ride the bike, although it's a bit tight when I start still. I'm hoping by next week that shouldn't be much of an issue. I do see my Doc next Thursday to see my progress and address any concerns. At this point I'm happy with how I'm doing, although I want to be back at full strength. I know in time that will come.
I'm going to hop on my bike after work today and see if I can squeeze in an easy hour. I've been riding my MTB only when I can since it's got the dropper for easier mounting and have even taken one short piece of trail. The only thing I keep telling myself is FALL LEFT. I can't allow myself to reinjure the leg before it's stronger so I'm always conscious of that. Today is two month until Wilderness...the dream is still alive.
