PAT..

went for my pre admission test at SGH.. blood test 1st, then test heart rate.. then x ray.. after tat go back, see anaestheist for more explanation. then go back clinic to see specialist for pre op assessment. Waited for 2 hrs plus. a bit time wasting. went back to orthopaedic diagnostic, they did tests on the knee to see the amount of displacement all tat.. was quite late so physio assessment dept closing. so I got to go back again today morning (sat) to do the test.

went there, did some cycling and warm up. then sat on the machine. was asked to kick and kick.. tested both legs. the machine was getting results for the strength of the injured and uninjured legs. injured right leg only had 75% strength of left leg. but right leg hamstring was stronger than left. maybe cos its injured, tat y the hamstring is helping to restrain the knee. Not sure though. 3 mths after op, this test will be done again and i need to achieve the same results before op.

after the test, went swimming.. today swam a bit lesser. 30 laps. usually 40laps. need to rest more for the op liao..
