    @martyz4 - that issue you have going on with the clicking? That would drive me insane! That doesn't sound right at all and your description of feeling like you have to crack your knuckles? I understand exactly what you're saying. Again would drive me nuts! Good luck with that I hope that stops.

    @martyz4 ~ very nice comment. I actually feel as though I haven't been through half of what a lot of other people have been but for me this is been extremely trying and bazaar at best! I'm so grateful that I'm feeling better today. Thanks!!

    Hello All~ I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend. Just wanted to give you a quick update; my blood test all came back negative everything is in the normal range. The conclusion is that I'm having residual side effects from the anesticia that I was under twice in a months time and the four...

    Thanks everyone~I'm absolutely going to ask my Dr to run blood test. I'm not on narcotics anymore so, that's not it. I suppose I could spend the day trying to guess. Hopefully my Dr will come up w/some answers. 8wks of feeling pretty awful is something I've never dealt with. I've said it...

    Hello all~ hope you all had a nice weekend. I need help! Let me preface thus by saying I have an appt with my GP this week. I am so extremely tired and still getting nauseous everyday! Practically anything I eat makes me feel that way. I've tried not taking meds for hours to see if that helps...

    Thanks again- I just looked at "energy drains for TKR" . I believe I looked at this a month ago (of course I forgot!) the graphics that josephine did are right on the money! How very strange this whole thing is. I really need to allow myself the time that I need to heal and get thru this. I...

    Thank you again, one and all. I so appreciate the input. You've been lifesavers since the beginning. I do have another question/slight worry...... I'm exhausted when I do anything! And I mean anything. Walk around? Tired. Go to the store? Tired. Literally do one thing, doesn't seem to matter...

    Hi @tiredwife ~ can always count on you! yes, I still have some swelling so I guess that's part of the stiffness. I don't think I've been overdoing though. Honestly, I'm too tired to overdue!! I should elevate more, (doing that right now) beyond that, I don't know.

    Been off this site for a bit. Hope everyone is well. I'm heading on two months out and my ROM is around 102• and doesn't seem to be moving much off of that. I'm doing eveything I can. Exercises. Icing. Resting. It's very depressing quite frankly. It feels stiff and weird and I'm a little...

    @tiredwife - good morning. I'm fine today. I appreciate you checking in. Regarding her previous post I didn't think anybody else was critiquing me except Josephine a bit tight frankly. I'm all for constructive criticism/comments. Sometimes the way people say or write things can come off a little...

    @tiredwife - josephine sure means well. She didn't insult me, it's just that I didn't join this forum to be critiqued and that's what I feel she's doing sometimes! I joined in the hope to find some comradery (sp) and some helpful tips to get thru this. As everyone is always saying, everyone...

    @Josephine - doing the best I can here!! You're not posting in my thread anymore? Your choice. I won't take it personally. Re: my comment about seeing that woman I know, who had hip surgery. Yah, maybe I did "compare" for a minute. I'm fully aware that the surgeries have different recovery times...

    @Lauramacky - I still marvel at the fact. As I sit here with my leg in the CPM machine perusing the Internet on my phone. I will be so glad when I am moving along little better than I am now. I really need to try to be grateful as someone said) for the little accomplishments. Best of luck to you...
