I'm back in the saddle again.
Yep, that's right. I was given the Okie Dokie to start putting some weight back on my right leg. A little at a time and with the aid of my crutches. I also don't need to keep the aircast boot on while I sleep (yippie).
But (more importantly) I did get the green light to start some indoor spinning. So, Bill got me all setup in the basement and I actually rode for about 45 minutes today.
My right calf didn't like it too much and my ankle was real stiff, but I think that's to be expected. The part where I sit also complained a little... At least I can say I'm riding (somewhat) again.
The x-rays showed some pretty good healing, but there is still a ways to go before it's 100%. I have another return appointment on March 10 and I plan on having quite a few miles in by then...
So, now I expect to be a little sore in some other areas for a few days and then it's go time.
Work will be half-days still until the swelling (and tingling) is under control.
All in all a great day!!!

Don Ho,that's great news!
You are definitely on the fast track to recovery.
Steve,
Thanks.
4 straight days of spinning and my ankle is starting to limber up. I plan on slowly ramping it up over the next several weeks.
Hope the big night at HWoods went well.
Good news Don.
Why don't you join me for a spin at the dahlc.
Paul
I have to get into "DAHLC shape" before I show up there...
But that would be a nice change of pace.
