Program that you gave me. And so I did that at the very beginning, after you and I talked about what I could or couldn't do, you know, leading up to each of the procedures and what I could and couldn't do. After the procedures, I curtailed my walking regimen in favor of the stretching exercise program that you gave me. And so I did that the week leading up to each of the PRP procedures and the two weeks after each of those procedures, just to give, you know, my body an opportunity to received the treatment, to heal after the treatment. And then I continued my walking. I went from one mile to two miles in between the two procedures. And after the second procedure, after the second week of that, I increased that back up, eventually to four miles. And so I got my walk back up to four miles.
