Guest guest Posted April 16, 2001 Report Share Posted April 16, 2001 Hi all. I'm addressing this to Mark and any others who are now challenging the 90 degree rule. As Treacy left for Switzerland 2 days after surgery, we still haven't covered every single question that has come up. I thought he said I should be able to do my socks/shoes at 6 wks post- op. So I thought that implied I shouldn't even try until 6 weeks, as my physio's were so adament about the right angle. So what week are you guys breaking the 90 degrees? And when are you all starting physical therapy? Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2001 Report Share Posted April 16, 2001 I am one week post-op and put both my Tedd and regular socks on by myself this morning. I still can not tie my shoes so I am getting other shoes tonight. At JRI we were issued occupational devices to help and they really work. Also I am on a 100 degree rule.
