Back on the bike



Today I thought I'd try my road bike out on the trainer. I had gotten a big fat seat to try and make it as comfy as possible and it actually worked quite well. I was able to ride for about 20 minutes at the end of which I was tired, sore, and sucking for air, but it felt great to be riding again. Over the past few weeks I have continued to improve at walking with one crutch and without my left leg brace. Last week the doctor and I decided to try taking my pain medication down another small amount. It hasn't effected my sitting tolerance much although I did experience some withdrawal early in the week. Nothing too major just some shakes and a few restless nights. I think that's about it for my news for now. Thanks for continuing to check up on me and for the prayers.
