Hi, My husband had RTKR on Monday August 1. He is doing great. I am here because he is not comfortable online with a forum. Physical Therapy came yesterday, and his ROM is 106. He's on Tylenol, Celebrex, and Oxycodone and has 0-1 for pain. However, re-reading some of the (many) pieces of paper they gave us, I saw that the Vena Go compression machine is supposed to be on the surgical leg even with the Iceman machine. Both PT and the RN were here yesterday and neither mentioned anything that it was not on his surgical leg. (it wasn't on the surgical leg in the hospital) How do you fit them both on there? I'm calling in the morning, but my frustration led me to ask about it here. By the way, the PT we saw yesterday was adamant about not doing too much or not having pain while doing things, so we feel comfortable. But he will not be our regular PT person and we are hoping his replacement has the same attitude. He'll be awake in an hour for his pain pill and I am going to try again to get them both on his leg.
