Hefty
Howdy fellow cripple.
Cut mine off 2 weeks ago. It’s getting better day by day. The stiffness will go quickly for you I’m sure, the strength, flexibility and confidence takes longer. It took ~10 days for the swelling to subside and to look a vaguely normal colour again.
I can now walk happily walk the dog for a couple of hours, just slowly and awkwardly.
If you’ve got a static bike I found that really good, can’t imagine getting running again any time soon though.
I went up a ladder today. Didn’t fall off.
