Re: sauna, nope. That's off limits due to BP issues. :~( But the good news is that the hip HAD healed enough for the stretches today to break the resulting don't-hurt-me stiffness. I was also able to approximate a working pace for the deep water workouts with these meds, to discuss with doc at July visit.

And then I came home and took it easy to see what soreness would result from breaking the "rigor mortis," stretched out flat so as not to sit on the sore spots. Doing pretty well. Hurts less than this AM. Good thing I had listened to the body: "Go NOW. Do THIS. And only this!" When it said, "OK, stop NOW, get out, go home," I DID.

Back at it tomorrow.
