Ps Thanks for tips Hearty. I am finding foam rollering helps and also strengthening exercises (clams and side leg raises with theraband)
Good job, prefabsprout! Yay for 5k's without knee pain!

For the moment, I'm dropping my regular weights altogether and going back to physiotherapy and stabilization. It's frustrating to go backwards like that, but I think it's wise at this point. It's certainly better than not doing anything at all, which looked like it was going to happen.

I just finished a bunch of knee, leg, wrist, and core moves using some stairs, light weights, theraband, and a newel post. I need to sort out a proper routine and stick with it.

And at least I should be able to keep up my usual cardio.
CepheidVariable, are you using gloves while lifting? I've been using heavy-duty lift gloves with long wrist straps, and it's significantly reduced the pain in my wrists and hands.

I'm sorry to hear about the lingering pain. It sounds like you're inspirational yourself.

Oh my. We have some kind of sad knee club going.
Thank you so much for the kind words and welcome, CepheidVariable! Love this thread.
