Pain

Pain goes along with every surgery. I thought I was doing pretty good until today. I hadn't had a pain pill since 8 p.m. last night. By noon today, I could hardly stand it. It isn't just a pain, it is more like a gigantic toothache in your leg. I have had a knee revision, which means taking out the old knee replacement and putting in a new one. I called the Dr. and he is letting me have another prescription. I am thankful for that.

Knee Revision

If you read my blog, you know I just had a knee revision a short time ago. Due to bone loss in my thigh bone, the parts had come loose. The doctor said they were so loose, he just took them out and put the new ones in. Normally, they would have to chip and chop, I suppose, at the cement holding in any of the pieces that were still tight. It is a long haul getting back to normal.
