Hi
@lovetocookandsew - my unit was a Ossur Cold Rush Therapy System. The funny thing is, I had one from my son's ACL surgery back in 2015, but when I turned it on, it would not start so I bought the new one. Luckily, Amazon is taking the return and sending a new one, but not until 6/12. Oh how I miss it. They are not reliable (apparently!) but when they do work, it is amazing.
For me right now the main issue is swelling. I actually have very little pain. I am almost shocked by the lack of pain as compared to last time. But since I have none, I am slowly cutting back on the oxycodeine, which has so many nasty side effects anyway.
I saw PT today and told them about the fever. Good news is fever is gone and the incision area looks good, so no one is concerned. I have an emergency number to call if I get worried in the middle of the night. But, he assured me I did nothing wrong yesterday and actually have made great progress in my movement.
I forgot that surgeries always have their own unique twists and turns. But all is well. My sister has been her today, changing my bed, cooking me healthy food, and generally doing what needs doing, which is so nice.
Plan for the rest of the day is mostly to nap - while icing and elevating!
