The beach, tropical heat and tequilla is just what my hip needed to start feeling better. I honestly wasn't bothered by my hip at all while in Cancun and I could have stayed there for ever (with my mexican boyfriend Luis of course). My hip has finally started to feel better, but I still have a long way to go. I'm able to get my glute to fire almost all the time now and I don't have the pain in my butt when I walk. My groin continues to give me trouble and I'm still very limited in my internal and external range of motion, BUT things are getting better just like the doctor said they would. I'm just about at 3 months and that is when he said I would start to notice a change-which I am. I'm still not able to wear jeans comfortably because of the groin pain, so I'm sticking to my cotton crop pants. I'm able to take long walks again and walk on uneven surfaces so watch out! I was even to climb a sand dune in Mighican (300 foot incline over 500 feet)and was never bothered by my hip. It feels so great to get to do more things!
I go and see the doctor on September 13th for my 12 week check up. I have the 3:30PM appointment again which means a LONG wait, but this time I'll bring something to do. This is the appointment in which I should be cleared to run and jump which will be timely with me going back to work. The little runners in my room won't be able to get by me!!!
I'm hoping my hip holds up with me going back to work. I feel like I just got it all figured out and feeling better and now I'm going to abuse it by sitting in little chairs, sitting on the floor and moving quickly. Maybe I'll just schedule a trip to Cancun for a little rehab every month! Who's coming with???
