Pain management is going well and there’s been no complications of any kind as yet… but I’m incredibly tight with minimal range of motion. I have PT three times a week and “home work” stretching that I do in between.

So that’s where I’m at…. How did yours go and any advice.

Last one was the year I shot the elk in my avatar, in on the 27th of July, was on a mountain in Montana the 2nd week of October. I had paid for the hunt already so I was motivated. Learned from the first one, was in good shape prior to the surgery which really helped. I was done with rehab in a month.

Ice is your friend, I got a set up so I could run my ice machine driving to the jobs. First week sucks regardless, but it is worth it in the end.
