Note: This is a copy of a note that I originally posted to social media, but felt would also benefit from being published here.
Last week, I went downtown for the follow-up appointment to my surgery back in July, and I want to share how it went.
My orthopedic specialist is pleased with the progress I've made so far in my recovery. For now, I've still been instructed to wear my orthopedic brace when I walk to prevent my Achilles tendon from tightening back to its pre-surgery state while I continue stretching it. Meanwhile, I'm wrapping up my post-op physical therapy, and I hope to publish a conclusion to my blog's Surgery series of posts about my therapy sometime next year.
