    Hello Birdie, you sound much better already after a week of rehab and getting your meds balanced. I realized after I went home how much I gained from my time in rehab, partly because I didn't have to ask my family for everything, you just concentrate on getting better and resting. I went back...

    Waiting for your return with pain free knees!! When I was in rehab a fellow recoverer asked if I had been in MUH because of the honeycomb dressing too. Seems to be a trademark. I was there in March and back in April so just missed Prince Harry! He might have helped to get us skipping a bit quicker!

    Will the Hydro pool be open before you leave as a lot of people find it very good to relax and exercise in ? I found it a bit of a struggle to get into the swim gear with a stiff leg, let alone two of them as you have, but it was worthwhile. Hope you are sleeping as I write as it is late, your...

    you really are having a hard time Birdie, I hope that you can see a doctor who can give you details of your medication and when they are dispensed to you. You need all the help you can get to recover. Hope you have a peaceful night.

    Whoosh!! That is not good!! Her job is to keep the patient comfortable and stress free......fail, fail! Hope you meet better care where you are now... Although Panadol seems a pretty lightweight pain relief....I needed far more than that, so fingers crossed the evening brings delightful pills to...

    Birds, you are at a different rehab to the one I went to but they need to take good care of you, especially with medication, ice paks and a welcoming cuppa!! Perhaps you have to ring the buzzer and remind the staff that you need help. :flwrysmile::flwrysmile:

    Birdie, I saw your comments about going to re-hab in Sydney and that you are in Macquarie Hospital. I was there in March for RTKA and then went to rehab and like you was a bit unsure about what to do. We live in a house with no steps, easy for moving around but was recommended to go to Lady...
