I am released by OS to go back to work. Started 2/13/06. Got lucky and went on a business trip for 4 days. Easier on the ankle, not to much walking. It went well, but by the time I got home I was so tired. I pretty much passed out immediately. First day out in the field went pretty good. Had PT later in day. Ankle was swollen and sore. Had a tough time today at PT. Very stiff. Therapist said ankle will be stiff and sore for quite a while. Great!!!...Not....Long weekend thank god. Only 4 days next week. Another trip coming soon. I'm on my way to being normal again. But ankle is still sore and swollen. I hope its better by summer. So I can walk on the beach.
