    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!

    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!!

    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.
