Wanted to give another update. Went to the Dr on Friday for the scheduled check up. The first week after surgery, Columbo did great and wanted to be up and about. The second week, he started limping more and didn't want to do anything. The Dr said he overdid it, so he has to go back again in 3 weeks before he will clear him for hydrotherapy. He wants him to take it easy until then. We are allowed 5 minutes walks for now. I guess this is one of those setbacks he said we could have. I am grateful that he didn't do any serious damage, though, because the last thing I want is another surgery. I guess I also needed a reminder to have him take it easy. He is still limping and favoring the leg, but I do see slow improvement as time goes by. We see the doctor again in mid-October. |
