@MCC good morning. I just wanted to chime in and give mt 2 cents. I have had 12 knee surgeries on my right knee, mostly scopes but some major ones as well. In 2013 @ age 38 I had the Tibial Tubercle Anteromedialization with lateral realease done. 1 week post op I ended up with a severe...
@NavyGunns my home health was set up at my request through the VA so I could start right away. As for the zingers Im having something similiar. We went to see the grandson last night and while out I started getting ha sharp needle jab feeling in my scar. Once home, I was laying in bed and the...
ok, today is day 12 post op so I figured I would give an update. Yesterday I didnt wake up until 0730 after a very good night of sleep. Knee was hurting some so I went ahead and took a percocet 10. My physical therapist came at 10 am and we did therapy for an hour. My nurse came shortley...
Well, we uncovered it when my nurse arrived and it has stopped bleeding. First pic is from this morning after removing aquacel. Second pic is 3 hours later, and the last pic is precautionary steri strips.
1 week post op
First pic was right after removal of the Aquacel this morning.
Second next picture is about 3 hours later once we removed the gauze for inspection
Third is the Steri-strips added as a precaution!
Well, got to experience an all new level of pain this morning. Got the aquacel off. It's not healed and was bleeding a good bit so my ice was able to wrap it with gauze.
Good morning everyone. Thought I would give an update. Stayed up late last night watching the UFC fights, however had a successful night of sleep again. In bed about 1230 am and up at 630 am without waking up any so Im very happy about that. Im up and mobile this morning since I have some...
Well, slept from 9pm to 3am when my alarm went off for more pain meds. Got up for about 45mins and went back and laid down for an additional 2 hours of sleep. We decided to venture to the hospital to see my grandson and we were gone for a total of about 4 hours until the pain was to much...
Thanks yall, I know its just gonna take time but it was really rough last night. I have been very limited on my activity today and have been using the cryo cuff and dozing here and there. If i could quit getting up going to the bathroom I would probably be pain free lol.
@MSgirl yes, he was...
Well, was able to get my cryo cuff down and use it for a little bit. Took my percocet 10s and an ambien at 2 this morning so was able to sleep in my bed until 630 this morning. We shall see what the day holds...... I know it doesnt hold pt lol.
Hi everyone. Figured I would get on here and post some things to help get my mind off this pain. I must say, I am hurting very bad. I am 2 days post op for my partial knee. I had a patellafemoral joint replacement done on 12/4. Stayed 1 night in the hospital and then came home with percocet...
@Celle I would definitely prefer the TKR just because I feel that I will need the revision and that its going to spread eventually due to the history. My current OS isnt worried about age as Im 44. He is more concerned trying to justify the TKR I think. He did state that the kneecap at least...
