PKR UACats Navio Robotics PKR - Jan 4

Back from San Francisco. Lots of walking and standing and the conference and all the hosted dinners and cocktail parties. Knee was achy and swollen a few times, but it wasn't anything ice and Advil couldn't handle. Did the wheel chair assistance at the airport on the leg home. What a difference! I got to bypass the lines at security and keep my shoes on! Used the gym in the hotel a couple times, cycled 4 miles each time. It really helps me with the stiffness. Overall, very pleased.
 
I agree with you about the wheelchair service. It's the best. Sometimes I even think about using it "just because" it gets you through all the airport mess so easily! Of course, I'd never actually DO that....just think about it. Glad your trip went well. That was a real test for your knee. Watch out.....we're going to be declaring you "healed" here soon! :heehee:
 
I'm glad it went well and you used the wheelchair assistance on the way home. I'm sure it made things easier with a sore knee. I agree about biking, I usually cycle anywhere from 5-10 miles a day (in my family room :heehee:).
 
Rower has been a god send! Been rowing 5000m a day. When I don't row, knee feels stiff. Here is my knee, will be 7 weeks post op on Wednesday.

When you try wearing heels, do make sure you're in a situation where you can change your shoes if they become uncomfortable. Just try them for short periods and see how your knee feels.
 
Woot! :yay: Wearing jeans for the first time, knee can actually fit in a pair - since swelling is nearly gone.
