Two Weeks!! I'd say I'm on track and a lot of this is coming back to me. Last time at 2 weeks the surgical tape was driving me crazy, last night it was irritated. We removed the tape this morning and boy does it feel better! I quit the walker around Thanksgiving. I took the pain pills as prescribed for the first few days and then as needed which wasn't much. Haven't taken anything since then. Log leg has diminished and I can lift it OK. This side is different as I had no limitations last time. This time I couldn't lift it and my knee tended to fall inwards. Very minimal bruising along the incision and that was the only swelling. Used the polar pack continuously even while sleeping which I think helped all of that. Been getting out walking and will probably go driving later today or tomorrow.
The hard part is having the patience! So many things I want to do but so far reading,Netflix and Youtube have kept me content. Turned cold so now I get to feed the woodstove.
