    Oh that makes me feel so much better to hear that. Thank you so much. I was unaware that they would numb it first so I'm much better with that.

    TKR Infection Possible

    2 weeks ago when my PT moved my kneecap around, I did have a little bit of yellow pussy looking oozing. But she said it was maybe coming from the scab that was near it. But then it oozed throughout the day a little bit and then I haven't noticed any oozing sense. However, I'm having pain down...

    Thank you I will discuss at my appointment with him prior to surgery. With the climate being so anti opiates it scares me even more.

    Well that is good to know there will be someone recovering with me. How are you feeling about your upcoming surgery? I think I am most nervous because I live alone and about pain in the beginning.
