I’ve done it again
Or, how I set myself back weeks
Yesterday I made a bit of a mistake. I was going through some of the exercises that Izzy Booker had prescribed me. And there's one that a kneeling lunge with the idea that it stretches and opens out the upper the upper hip on either side. For some strange reason I got it into my head that it would be a good idea if I stuck a yoga block underneath my left foot and dropped my right knee onto the ground and then did the stretch. Which I did.
I figured it might help with the SI joint. About an hour later, and ever since then, and this is two days later, I am in absolute agony. It seems to be around the site where the surgeons had to lean on me for fifteen minutes to stop me from leaking all over the floor. I guess it must have consolidated whilst I've been largely inactive since the angioplasty and of course all the medications they gave me to help heal probably set this particular set of muscles and ligaments and tendons into one position and I inadvertently tore it open yesterday. There's no bruising or anything, it's just incredibly sore.
However I have noticed that both my feet are tracking differently. Whereas before they were tracking at ten to twelve and eight to fifteen minutes past twelve, depending on how tired my legs. I've been having a long and involved conversation with my AI assistant who I think I shall refer to by a name soon; essentially I've been working and thinking deeply on the chain.
Something is hampering my recovery. I should be a lot fitter than this. I should be a lot more able bodied than I am, but for some reason i‘m being held back and I think I've discovered why now. I just need to to work on that and hopefully within a very short space of time, now that I know where it is and knowing what I've got to do next, I shall be hammering around at a rate of knots and then I can really start to begin to get fit for what is gonna be an exciting journey.
