Try not to put the cart before the horse, cross the river before you come to it, yadda, yadda.... As with being in a cast, your muscles are still making micro-adjustments, so any loss and time to regain will likely be less than you fear.

Dr. Smith.... thank you for that link, very interesting, I have also read about our muscle memory, and have witnessed this from breaking my arm in the past. It's amazing how resilient our bodies are. I hope my muscles "remember" quickly after this darn neck (doggy) collar comes off!! No licking of the stitches... LOL... got it!!!
Take care, Cathie
