had the surgery yesterday morning. All went well. It’s early day 2 and I feel pretty good. I had 2 blocks so it will be an adventure when they where off bt right now ok. The pain meds have me somewhat confused, I have had oxy and tramadol but I don’t think I have had those since about 6hrs ago. I do know I had IV NSAID a couple hours ago so maybe that is working. Bottom line is it doesn’t hurt much now and I just bent it 90 degrees myself and it wasn’t bad. Yesterday that hurt when the PT came. I was up on the walker to the chair and the bathroom twice and sort or got the hang of it. Knee felt wobbly when bearing weight unless I consciously tensed up the quad. I was pretty dosed up at the time though. Doctor said the knee was the worst he has seen. Procedure took two hours and he typically does in under an hour. Oh well. He gave my wife one of the old screws he took out (she was thrilled...)
