The last couple of days have been status quo. The pain level has evened out at about 5-6 but flairs up to around 8 when the meds start to wear off. The pain has gone from the piercing pain that I have been having to more waves of pain. Its more tolerable on a day to day basis.
The area where the Osteonomy is has begun aching more and more as I spend time in the CPM machine. I've never had a broken leg, but i assume this is normal from the increase stress put on the leg from the machine.
Tomorrow I have my second follow up with the doctor. We'll talk about my recovery, get the stitches taken out, and get a better feel for when I can return to work and when I can start putting slight weight down on the leg. Physical Therapy starts next week...not really looking forward to that.
