Yeah I'm feeling considerably better. I rather suspect the culprit was the blood thinners I was on as about 24 hour s after I was was done with the 4 week course, I was feeling much better.Hi ColoradoSnowman,
Happy One Month Anniversary!
Hopefully you're feeling a little less tired these days and doing well.
Enjoy the weekend!

Other than that the OATS recovery is slowwwwwwww. Still in a fixed brace. just nothing to do but wait for the healing to take place. The highlight of the week is that I got to start PT finally. My flexion is >135, strait leg raises, heel slides and quad sets are what I get to do. Hopefully I get the thumbs up from my OP in a couple of weeks to ditch the brace and move on to walking with crutches. I still have high hopes that I will be walking unassisted by 12 weeks.
Other than that, minimal to no pain, just the physical limitation of not being able to bend my knee which makes ambulation and sitting in a chair rather limiting.
Assuming this works I am happy with my choice, but experiencing the scale of physical limitation and temporal scope of recovery, in retrospect I would have given a PKR more serious consideration.
