Rubber spacers still in and won't come off till next Monday. NO pain now, except slight discomfort. Amazing part, the rubbers are setting in and sinking in as supposed to. Hooray... I am well on my way!!
Hugs all and thanks, you'll are just awesome!

Congrats Cece. I am new too and will be braced next week. The initial stage is rather a drag I suppose. Am sure it gets better with time... Overall I am simply glad to have found this great support group. It sure helps with this journey... All the best and keep posting us with updates.

Cheers
