In the hospital.

I think they come in tomorrow.
I look forward to pee standing up again.

I am neither seeking a pity-party, nor am I making light of a serious situation, but they shaved my balls.
What’s up with that?

She showed up once last week.
Did a couple things and checked some boxes. In and out in 45 minutes.
The ten day window has come and gone. I think I’m on my own.

You would think that you would get more than one visit for therapy to get you back to where you need to be.

One would think.

She probably figured out you are a lost cause..........

You'll be back to kicking rocks before you know it.

The worst is over.
I think the operation was a success, the rehab remains dynamic, I’m in it.

Are things looking UP ???

Things are challenging

Hang in there, with anything knee related, time and persistence are required.

Thirty days out and the scar is great, swelling is controlled, foot is properly indexed (left leg will adjust to length).
I am pretty sure all parts were properly installed.
I can stand on it, it is stiff to bend it, it is stiff to straighten.

I had this fantasy of doing a bunch of stuff from the wheelchair. Pfffft! The pain can be so much so debilitating that I couldn’t concentrate. That part is a lost cause.

I am thankful for the mild winter, that helped.
ReHab is my spring hobby this year.

A friend of mine had knee replacement surgery 3 months ago and is doing quite well. He's been going to the gym and working out on the bike. He walks well and is happy with the way it's coming along. He had trouble bending his knee at first and still does but he says it's getting better. As for being numb around the area, doctor says it will take up to a year or more to get full feeling back.
Glad you are healing up.

I am very happy to hear you are on the right track!!

“I cut that leg three times and it is still too short”

So I’m hitting PT three times a week. When I’m not working the knee, I’m icing it. My guess it will hurt at this level for months. As much as it hurts, the joints articulation is smooth.
I also assume the more I pound it now, the less I will feel later.

NOTE: I am no longer knock-kneed. My lateral meniscus was missing, giving me a severely angled right leg,which now I have perfect femur-tib/fib alignment, relatively speaking.
Imagine only freshening the suspension on the left side, do all your alignment setting, then do the other side. That is the best part so far, having both legs in alignment.
everything is positive.
