Hrm... is there anyone left in here besides me? Bueller? Anywhos. Just came back from PT. It was only an evaluation. The treatment starts on Friday.

I am hanging in. My hip is actually bothering me more the past couple weeks. I blame it on being up and about and standing a lot during surgery. I got an e-mail back from my surgeon (3 days later! This is the first time she hasnt e-mailed back in a few hours - except the couple times she called instead) and she basically told me to just keep pushing forward and it should get better. I was kind of worried she would tell me something I didnt want to hear, so I guess that was good news. But I am ready to start following the more typical course for this injury and be able to do what I am supposed to do. On the other hand, I am off crutches (and have been for a couple weeks) which is great and enjoying my surgery rotation. I really like that we can actually make a difference and fix things - I disliked that in internal medicine I felt like all we did was prescribe medicine and try to keep patients out of the hospital. Then again, I felt like internists got to know their patients and its not clear surgeons see them back to see their improvement. I am also exhausted. I still cant get my sleep-cycle in sync with my work-cycle. Maybe tonight will be better. Or rather this afternoon as it feels. Good luck everyone!!!
