But once you get back online to the forum maybe this will help - I was overwhelmed right after surgery because this is a Big Deal :shk: We are used to being able to use all of our joints and it's a shock to the system when we can't. So days one through four I was thinking AHH what have I done? 
But it was only a few days later that I was doing better and starting to move around. :pnc: So this is what I want to share - Before long things will be better. I've recovered well enough after three months to be getting ready to do the other knee in October! 
I was fine and I know you will be too. After the recuperation period and the physical therapy (PT) I love my new knee! :wub: Hang in there girl, it will all be worth it. Every day it gets better! Just be sure to rest up, work on PT as you can as the swelling goes down. And oh yes, find a physical therapist you like! They make all the difference. See you on the walking trails!
