TKR Knees 1 AND 2 up and running

Shelia, I hope you had a restful night and your pain is still under control:flwrysmile:
 
Good morning ms Two Good Knees! :-)

How was your night and how are you feeling today? Thinking of you, hope all is well.
 
Hi friends :). Didn't sleep much but only because of surgicenter routine, not pain. Very comfortable night. Had PT- just stretching, walking and practice stairs 3).

I am safely home, elevating and icing. I'm taking oxy on schedule -- not having pain (Praise God) but know it will come as the local wears off.

I am so very thankful for God, my family, 3D friends and you all. I have been very blessed.

Husband is beside me, being an excellent nurse.

Again, thank you all so much for the support -- only those who have been here and done this can really get this, I think. Bless you all.

Still thinking about a mountain kneeunion for those of us who can come to Asheville in late spring. I want to meet you awesome peeps.

Welcome home knee-twin sister. Now it's your time to rest and be pampered. Don't rush a thing. :sleeep:
 
Yayyy, you are home, I hope the pain stays away...

Hopefully tonight you will be able to get some rest!!!
 
I'm so glad you are home, with your devoted nurse! Get plenty of rest. I'm impressed you got to walk! Keep comfortable.
 
Wonderful home, sweet home! God is so good all the time! It sounds like you are doing great! I pray the pain stays away as much as possible. Looking forward to an Asheville kneeunion! Maybe I can hold off my left one until after then. Maybe even forever!
 
I'm glad you're home, Shelia.
Rest, ice, elevate and medicate on schedule - you can set your own routine now.
I'm glad your husband is looking after you well.

PS: Would you like your thread title changed now? Is so, just post what you would like it to be and we'll change it for you.
 
Celle, thank you! Yes, I would love to have my thread title changed to "Knees 1 AND 2 Up and Running". What a delight - wasn't sure I'd go back for #2. I'm so glad I did.

Icing, elevating, medicating and smiling. I was SO terrified yesterday going in. I know there are going to be rough days ahead, but I'm smiling right now ( I think I might be a little high from the oxy. I am not in pain but I'm taking it on schedule). I gave hubby my credit cards before surgery. But i can't hide my phone, so y'all please forgive my foggy brain. :)

As we know from experience, credit cards and oxy make for 'interesting' purchases! :rotfl:

I am glad you are home and doing well. You are headed toward the finish line now!
 
Your brain doesn't seem a bit foggy to me! I hope the coming days are pain free.
 
Made it upstairs! I couldn't bear the thought of night on couch. Hubby and I went slowly and knee 1 did beautifully. Praise God! In my bed nest with ice machine and meds. And hubby :). I was not up to a shower tonight but in the morning - I hope so. PT comes at 9. A new company for at-home due to my insurance. I've got his Bonesmart packet ready to go :)

Night y'all. Thanks for your kindness.
