Well I hope the best for her. I didn’t seem to be this “down” with the first one. I didn’t even finish the painkillers and I was up and about before six weeks. It’s true - as soon as I got to moving around and walking again, the other knee instantly got worse. I had it done at the end of October, 11 months after my first knee. For some reason this one has me downright miserable...and I’m on my third prescription for painkillers.
In any case, the worst seems to be past and I’m heading out for a walk. The weather has had a lot to do with things - grey, rain, snow, wind, and COLD as cold can be.
They used to do both knees at the same time a few years back, but they don’t any longer. I don’t know which way would be worse. Good luck to your friend! I hope all goes well.
Hugs back at ya!
Hope you are pain free soon.
So glad to hear the worst is over and lets hope that everyday is much better for you.
I used to think, if things got much worse down here, we could move to Canada.
Now I think I’ll take that option off the table.
Maybe you will get a fighter for the people in your next election since Tru-dough has become an Obummer clone.
Glad you are up and around. But I’m sorry you have had a miserable recovery. I know how that is, you were having your surgery when I was still looking for a therapist I know you are walking around and I’m still keeping my fingers crossed.
Yikes, both knees at the same time sounds awful!
I’m surprised Canadian medicine got you in that quick to get the second need. That is fantastic. I’m talking to a friend and Britain who has been on a waiting list for a year just to start some therapy.
