Be a compliant patient, Steve; follow your doctor's instructions.
Don't do what I did after 5 weeks on my back after bi-lateral toe surgery and do a day hike from Pine Creek trail-head to Italy Pass...and back...on pain meds. Idiot me. Shocked my doc.
My current doc, a retired Navy Seal, told me to "embrace the suck".
Growing old is not for sissies, eh? So, we keep putting one foot in front of the other and carry on.
