PT thinks I shouldn't mess w/ bike at all (saddle height, cleat location), figuring I will be all thrown off when I do recover and hurt my knees. She is focusing on hamstring/calf stretches for now, and is appalled at what she called very very very flat feet. That's an escalation in description of my foot shape (or lack thereof). She figures all my problems come from my feet. I'm curious to find out. I hope she's completely correct.
It's funny how she is so up on the biomechanics, I had suspected the MD would not be, and I was right, but I needed to get a referral from him (which he was eager to do, ship me off to someone who he knew would actually know the details of this stuff beyond just the theory).
And, oh yes, there was an interesting question on the paperwork for the PT place, do I learn best by listening, reading, or doing? And generally I am an academic of sorts so reading gets me pretty far, but I definitely checked 'doing' for this, 'cause that's where I get the actual muscle memory from...
