45 here this morning. Rain for the next couple days.
Going in for a half knee tomorrow morning for 8:30. So May be off line for a bit. Haha. Hopefully not. But we’ll know tomorrow. 😊 Going to try and do it without opioids. Because they suck. 😊

Good luck with your recovery. I am scheduled for a total knee replacement on May 19. End stage osteoarthritis is no fun.

Let us know how it goes. Dad will probably have that done after the TO.

Funny thing, It happens every Spring, HA!

The half isn’t really bad. I’m quite amazed I can put full weight on it and forward and backwards are painful, but only a little more than a scope. Can you get two halfs for the time of one. 😊
If I have to get the other one done, hopefully a half.
This Dr is 76 and knows his stuff. One of the best for a half. Only took an hour in the OR. He call today. Said everything went great. X-ray after was perfect. So should be a good recovery. Let’s hope. And good luck with yours brother. How long of recovery are they saying. They keep telling me to do the exercises.

Rehab is the key. They say 8 to 12 weeks before I can go back to work. Should be up and around same day. Physical therapy 3 times a week.

I think they said once a week but stuff I can do at home the rest of the week. I gotta get it done. I have too much walking to do this summer. 😊

Been there, done that twice for same knee. 12 weeks before back to work, I'd give it 4 weeks if you have a desk job and limited walking.

Ouch
How’d you do that, did you not do your exercises the first time ?

Construction work and if they told me 3 reps, I did 6 to get back to work.

Semi desk job probably 6000 steps a day.
