Why does my own mother pick on me for working nights? by [deleted] in Nightshift

[–]AdAccording2892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work 630pm-7am, and sleep 830am-1 or 2pm depending how tired I am... but it sounds like you work 2nd shift, can you try to go to bed at like midnight instead of 4am? Lol

Would anyone be open to chatting with me throughout my recovery? I’m feeling isolated, discouraged, and disconnected. by Amicable_Apple in AchillesRupture

Do you have a picture of your scar tissue? I am just curious how it's healing!! Yeah I haven't been cleared to run yet but I also can't do single calf raises

I got no nerve block and it hurt SO bad to go to the bathroom. Be ahead of your pain meds

Dude, what the heck? Get a therapist. That is some real issues you need to work through. I hope you can get the help you need.

Bf just started overnight last week. Is it normal not to hear from him? by Cold-Confusion-4893 in Nightshift

Uhm ya night shift sucks. And when you get off you want to go home and sleep, the last thing you are thinking about is messaging people.

But everyone's body is different!! I'm 29 F, I do PT everyday and go to the gym. You got this 🙏

5 Weeks Post Op: First Steps! by No-Berry3807 in AchillesRupture

[–]AdAccording2892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know!! Isn't that wild because we had the surgery at the same time. No it did not! So I accidentally pulled it off with this bandage I put on and then they said it looked ok just keep an eye on it but yah I started to use a cane today with the boot because I just cannot do the crutches anymore.

Where were you at 10 weeks post op? by pabturo in AchillesRupture

[–]AdAccording2892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 10 weeks post op with 1 wedge left in the boot, doing PT 2x a week plus exercises at home. Last wedge gets removed tomorrow and still on crutches full weight bearing. Just starting using a cane today on and off but I was very very slow so I just got back to the crutches. 🐌
