February Surgery! Any buddies?

  • Popular Post

I finally have a date! I feel like I'm being swept off my feet. I keep hearing the date over and over in my ears. I cant believe a year ago, I didn't even know there was such a cure, and here I am about to start living the healthy life I deserve. Its becoming real and I absolutely can not wait. I only know a few people who have gone through this, but I would welcome any comments or support!

Im scheduled for tomorrow too!! Ahh! Lots of excitement and anxiety and very nervous of what to expect....

Good luck tomorrow!

Had my surgery on the 14th no issues with the surgery. But I have severe osteoarthritis bilaterally. 4 days post op I started having issues with my right knee. Three weeks without NSAIDs. I couldn't even put weight on my right leg. It got worse my whole leg from my toe to my hip was swollen and sore. I went to the ER to make sure I didn't have a DVT. Thank goodness I didn't. I had a huge effusion in my knee. I got a dose of steroids injected today. I hope it gets better soon.
