Yama Mama Posted June 23, 2009 #2 Posted June 23, 2009 Lowell, Did the doctor tell you to wear compression hose on your leg? That might help increase your blood flow. Yama Mama:thumbsup2:

Redneck Posted June 23, 2009 #4 Posted June 23, 2009 Good luck I hope the leg get back to normal soon. I'm sure the walking won't hurt.
Snarley Bill Posted June 23, 2009 #5 Posted June 23, 2009 do what the doc says and don't over do it. see you at the hub. bill
mini-muffin Posted June 23, 2009 #6 Posted June 23, 2009 Well you do what you have to Lowell. I'd think the moving around would be good for you anyway. Oh and watch how much you do in the heat too. Margaret
Eck Posted June 23, 2009 #7 Posted June 23, 2009 Hope your leg gets back to normal soon Lowel. Don't over do it just to show up at a VR rally, or you will be in bed for a long time...!!
BoomerCPO Posted June 23, 2009 #8 Posted June 23, 2009 Lowell ya might want to try doing leg exercises to strengthen the leg muscles and get the blood flow back up. Good luck and hope you fair well with the leg. Boomer.......who sez chasing pretty wimmen will be beneficial too.(Chasing the ugly one's won't help cuz they are slow....like the 1st Gens)

Yammer Dan Posted July 3, 2009 #13 Posted July 3, 2009 Hope it gets better for you Lowell. Being stuck and can't do things is no fun!!
mini-muffin Posted July 3, 2009 #14 Posted July 3, 2009 Well you get better. Might want to make another visit to the dr. doesn't sound like just poor circulation to me. Maybe a different dr. might help too. You take care of yourself now Lowell. Margaret
wild hair 39 Posted July 10, 2009 Author #15 Posted July 10, 2009 you thank that gov health care might be good,need to try the VA,6 week now they finely took an x-rAy,now waiting for an MRI,leg is better,but it will give way,down i go,hard to walk down hill,can't step down with right foot,tall grass is hard to bring the left foot foreward TIME WILL TELL LOWELL
SteveW Posted July 10, 2009 #16 Posted July 10, 2009 Take care of that leg !! Maybe its time to put a sidecar on it. ( its great when your on long trips ) you can carry lots of stuff. Is it the knee giving out ? Get well soon Steve
Yammer Dan Posted July 10, 2009 #17 Posted July 10, 2009 Crazy little things that you can't do with a bum leg that really get you. I can't walk thru the tall grass, can go on level ground be can't go up hill and down hill is very slow and rough going. Any walking I do I really pay for later. Its Hydro time. Getting up and down is hard to do with one foot you can't push on . TRY IT!! Hang in there Lowell. Exercise might be good for it once you get back on it.
