Day 11
May 29, 2009

Today was my first visit to the orthopedic surgeon since the surgery. He gave the ok to unlock the brace (although I've had it unlocked for a few days), and gave me permission to wean myself off the brace as I see fit, which really surprised me. Doing a lot of reading and asking others about their surgery, I found most people were in their brace for at least 4-6 weeks, if not longer. Knee was solid and he was happy with my progression over the first 11 days.
