I'm hearing the theme to "Rocky"...

My Doc says by my 3/4 week post op appt he wants me walking 1 1/2 to 2 miles a day. Just got in from a 1 mile straight walk!! I'm hearing that **** song again... lol
That last 2 days I've done. 2, 3/4 mile walks so I stepped it up today. Later I'll do another 1 mile and do so for 2 days and step up some more. Hoping for 5 miles minimum per day by my appt.
Also quit them pain meds after last Wednesday. Just can't handle being a stoner.... Ibuprofen is good enough.
and a little whiskey...

When I had my L5/S1 done all they told me to do was walk. The first day home from the hospital I was able to make it to the end of my driveway (which is only 2 vehicles long) with my walker. The next day I made it to the neighbor's house, by the end of the 3rd week I was walking 11 miles a day. I was so bored, all I could do was walk to keep from going crazy. Thankfully, it was January and the brace kept me warm, can't imagine trying to do it now while its hot outside.

Keep at it, from what I've read this isn't your first go at this. Good luck with you recovery...

Daytime TV sucks to put it mildly... My wife was home last week taking care of me and my needs. Now shes at work today and I'm bored so walking and thinking of stupid movie themes is all I could come up with.

Glad you are doing well Mike, hang with it.

[deer99hunter]

Sounds like some great progress, especially with the pain meds ! Keep at it Mike, you'll be ready to go 12 rounds before you know it
