Well here I am with my new silver knee (titanium).
I thought I was here for one night, in hospital, still here, which is a good thing.
I have a movement disorder, known as orthostatic tremor, so it has challenged the steadiness of the body.
IV morphine and Ketorolac were stopped this morning, I was started on Dilaudid .Not sure of the frequency yet.
Already met a physio who thought she should press on my knee or straighten it....I think not!
Have walked to the bathroom once..it's heaven to have privacy in the b.r.
Knee dressing off today, will get a look at surgeon's handiwork!
