CO-pay issues
Has anyone else had this issue? My os office has a physical therapy dept. I started out doing my therapy there and because of the insensitivity of the therapist and not having the same therapist each time I changed therapy places after my mua. Thank goodness I only had 9 sessions. At my first...- clovergirl59

I can predict the weather!
Yesterday my knee was aching a lot. I told a few people that we were going to have a big storm. We are currently under a tornado warning, looks like it is going to be a long night. I really don't have time for this, I have laundry to get done and a million other things to do before Friday, but I...- clovergirl59

Am I overreacting? Comments please!
I am scheduled for my TKR this Friday. Everyone here knows what we are put through to get to this point. I walk into work this morning and a coworker has her 2 y/o daughter with her. I don't think much about it until another coworker tells me not to get around her she has fever. I'm thinking oh...- clovergirl59

Went to my joint class today
I went to my joint class today. It was for knees & hips. The therapist was very informative, but there were a few things that she said that I didn't agree with. One was that we should be able to drive by week 4 as long as we were not on pain meds, and that we would go from walker to cane by week...- clovergirl59

Who needs Jim Cantore? I can predict the weather!
Even though I live in West Tennessee, I knew the hurricane was headed our way. When I looked in the mirror this morning, I had really big hair from the humidity and my knee and hip hurt all day long until the rain started! :gaah:- clovergirl59

Obsessed (or maybe just nuts)
It seems like ever since I got my surgery date I have become:yikes: obsessed with preparing for the big event. I am so glad that I found this forum.

This site is great!
I am scheduled for a RTKR in October. I have really enjoyed reading through the information here. I had a LTKR in 1995, and I know that things have improved since then. Had a RTHR in 2009. I have a pretty good idea of what lies ahead, and it cannot be any worse than what I have already...- clovergirl59
