deborahjrossFriday -- received steroid injection, R knee. Not painful but squicky. No change symptoms.
Sat, Sun, as usual, knee better in morning, worse in evening. 1/2 nonweightbearing exercise each day.
Monday (work); 1/2 hour exercise plus 15 minutes walking errand. Knee significantly worse than usual in both pain and stiffness.
Tuesday (work); 1/2 hour exercise, no walking except in office. Knee pain mild.
Wednesday; 1 1/2 hr yoga. Rolf session. Knee almost painfree.
Now, the question is -- is this a real improvement or just the vagaries of the pain? If it is, is it due to the injection (and will it continue after the pharmacological effect has worn off)? A real test is coming up -- flying to San Diego for Westercon. Airports, lots of walking in the hotel. Note to self: bring swim suit for water exercise! Also many plastic bags for icing knee.
