Yayyy for the good news!
Come on Tuesday, lets get this done!!!
Wonderful! Good luck and fast healing!
Good luck! Just two more days and you're on!!!
Trying to get our place all set up for my walker/potty chair/shower chair, it feels weird... like I'm welcoming an aged relative. But in a few weeks it'll be in the past and I'll be better!
Sounds like what I did in 2004 when preparing for my foot surgery. Sounds like you are doing well with this, and it WILL pass!Quote:

Good luck, Pax.
Thanks everyone, I'm waiting on the call from the pre-op nurse to get my report time for tomorrow. Very ready to get this show on the road!
Good luck!!!
Just got the call from the pre-op nurse, I got the very first slot! I report at 5:15am tomorrow and my surgery is at 7:30am!!
Good luck and come tell us how it went when you are feeling better!
Thanks, and will do.Quote:

Thinking of you Pax, hope all went well!
My surgery went really well and they got me up and standing yesterday. I'm sleeping a lot! The medical staff is fantastic and I keep hearing how great my surgeon is and how lucky I was to get him... so yay!!
Double yay! I hope the recovery goes well.
Just took a walk, managed about 35 feet! Now I'm on the CPM for two hours, it bends and straightens my knee to keep things flexible.
Man, I am getting terrific care.
Wow. That is faster than I thought it would be for "walking". I did not know what CPM was and looked it up. Neat machine!
So happy to read you are well taken care of too.
Woo Hoo! Great news!
So good to hear you are already up and about.
Took my third and final walk for today... 95 feet!
Getting the nerve block out in the morning so things may slow a bit with the distance.
Excellent news Pax, you'll be good a new soon. :D
Yay! Glad it went so well.
Sleep well ... hope the pain isn't too bad tomorrow.
I am trying really hard with my PT, did a 350 foot walk last night before bed!! Going home today, it'll be nice to be in my own bed and not be awakened 3-4 times a night.
So glad to hear your good progress so far! Hoping that trend continues :)
Home is good. Thanks for the update - keep healing!
Going home now!! I'm doing great but am exhausted.
You'll feel better in your own things. Now time to think of yourself and relax. In-between physio treatment that is. :)
Welcome home, Pax. :)
Glad to hear things went so well, Pax! Hope the recovery is not too bad. I know my step-dad really hated all the PT and icing he had to do.
Just took my first shower it four days, it was heavenly!!! Wore me out though, I'm going to sleep good tonight.
Glad to hear that you are home Pax! Sounds like you are in good hands all the way around... now on to PT! That bike will be waiting for you when you're ready :)
Feeling back on track today, I slept well last night, doing my CPM now and will do some PT after breakfast... this healing up is a full time job!
Yes it is and you should definitely treat it as such. Glad you're doing so well.
It certainly is a full time job ... but a temporary one!
You're so dedicated, this will fly by.
Tried to do all the exercises they told me to do but I bonked hard, now my knee is really tight, maybe just too much for my first full day out of the hospital.
Are you sure they didn’t say something about easing into the exercises :)
Know that by the time you move to florida you’ll be ‘young and fit’ again and enjoying riding your townie to the beach :D….warm hugs and hoping you heal quickly and safely!!!
Keep healing ...
Will your PT come to your house, or do you have to get to their office? Hope you didn't get too much snow!
