    TKR Thank You - hubby has had both knees done

    @tiredwife Sorry to hear about your husband's friend. I will remember his family in my players. I hope the injection of your shoulder works soon . arthritis really isn't fun at all. It is going to be cold tonight. Get out your sweaters.

    I hope your shoulder will feel better. The shots hurt though . I had my last shot about 5 months ago so I am starting to feel the twinges of pain trying to sneak in again. I hope it stays under controll for a long while. Hate those injections but they do help a lot so far. Good luck.

    This is the same meds I was sent home with except dosage was 1-2 every 3 hours I took 2 in beginning. I think I have cut back some. Does hubby still take anything? How are you both today?

    I am doing very well. I think I have come to a turning point. The tight band feeling is getting better. I am starting to see a knee cap I think. There seems to be more aching in the knee itself. Maybe because the area around it is better and I notice it more. Aching at night too. Maybe...

    Prayers for your hubby's mother and you and your family. I can't believe how great your rom is. Mine is 110 and a 2. I am not really concerned with the numbers but like improvement and getting out of a MUA worry.

    2014 August Hot Shots - Are you having knee surgery in August?

    @tiredwife I can't be more ready! Tylenol does nothing for me. I am trying to stay in good spirits but this pain is getting very depressing. Shoulders, back, left knee and the whole right leg. Sorry for the poor-me this morning. I know everyone is hurting. Well off to church. Probably...
