Total Knee Replacement: What They Forgot to Tell Me
I sniffed that Total Knee Replacement (ta-da-dummmmmm) surgery was a piece of cake.
What they forgot to tell me that rehab is a bitch.
Need a Halloween costume and want to appear as a soulless, wicked, purveyor of pain and suffering? Borrow a rehab therapists name tag.
Owie.
I guess you won’t be running to the door for any Trick or Treaters this year. Hey, you got it done, which is something I wasn’t so sure you’d even do Mark. You have a right to grumble, grouch or whatever the heck you want. I hope it all starts to feel better real soon….sending (((((((Soothing and Healing Hugs)))))))))) Mr. Tough Guy. Love, Joy
@Joy: thanks for the hugs. Needed. I tend to groan a lot and am trying to cut down.
When I had my knww scoped 10 years ago, Dr. Lowe, the Dr. for the Houston Rockets, had me give myself Coumadin injections into my stomach 2x a day for 3 days. Felt like acid. It was to prevent blood clots. I think the clots would’ve hurt less. Hang in there kiddo.
