I know Crankin, I just worked so very hard to lose all of that weight over the last year, that it is just frustrating to not be able to exercise. I think part of that is a fear that the weight will return, but am being strict with my diet. However, that is life, and this is not a permanent condition. Indeed, if I weren't so stubborn it probably wouldn't have gotten quite so bad. My physical therapist hasn't seen anyone before with quite so many things wrong with the same leg at the same time...

I do appreciate hearing about your experience, it does help. In the end I really just want to go ride my bike...and that time will come
