I had my first PT today. It was good.
After the expected measurements about what my body normally can do, and what it can do at the moment, they gave me two very gentle exercises -- one, squeezing a large ball, and two, doing resistance exercises -- and then put me on a gentle bike-type device where I could exercise my leg without it having to support any weight. I was delighted, as this was exactly what I wanted. And I actually think it made a difference - - I felt slightly stronger afterward.
Of course, I then came home and collapsed into bed, but it's the principle of the thing. This is goodness.
Another session tomorrow.
