My Legs are a Mess

2.5 weeks post IM and tendon injury and 2 weeks into PT which is supposedly going to help with my recovery. All is going well, the PT is working on the fascia, code for torture, and I'm doing strength/stretching exercises at home. Until Wednesday morning when I could not walk.

Apparently my leg issues are so bad that as soon one area is "released" some where else hurts. Kinda like the cartoons when they hammer down the gopher only for it to pop up somewhere else. So between all the stretching and massaging I manage to strain some itty bitty muscle in the back of my calf.

I knew my legs were a mess because running has been painful for more than a year or so now, but really this is ridiculous. But the truth is, I just have to laugh at this because I know my poor legs need this rest so badly that when I am done I may actually be able to run without feeling like my legs are made of wood.
