Anyway... after 10 minutes of walking and speed walking and building up confidence to run, eventually, with 2 hands on the bar in front of me, I started to jog. I put a lot of weight on the bar just to feel safe but I knew I had to eventually remove myself from the "training wheels" and go it at it freestyle. At first I was using my right leg a lot more than my left but eventually (through lots of self confidence building) I managed to equal them out and jog normally!! No pain or swelling afterwards so I can continue to jog indefnitely! Well, maybe not indefinitely. Right now jogging for me consists of 1 minute of jogging and 1 minute of speed walking, 10 minutes total.
I've also been running up stairs which feels great! Although my physio didn't say it was ok, I'll just assume it is!
