WOW.....

Just been to the hospital, been signed off for 12 months, they are pleased with me and I am chuffed!

 

Still got to do the exercises, massages, icing etc.... 'cos it will  take  up to 18 months to be 'normal'

 

I saw the X-rays and asked if they put my old knee cap back and yes they have.  The surgeon would rather do that.

 

Just got to get back into walking more again.

I will stay with the group as I might be able to offer some advice...

Best wishes for your op, I know reading up can sometimes be over whelming but the information given by everyone is so valuable and being in with those who have been through this op helps.  It is different for everyone, just take it as ity comes, take your meds, do the exercises and don't rush things..  Take care.

I miss cooking so much. I find it very relaxing so when I do try, I march on the spot.  Don't know if it helps, but it cheers me up.
