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.

Monday

Here it is 5 days since my surgery last Thursday. I have been using ice packs off and on and they help. I have cut back on the pain pills and I am not so sure it is good. We baked a delicious meatloaf that my daughter brought. Also have enough baked potatoes to peel and fry up tomorrow night. A lady from church said she is bringing chicken tonight so that will be good too. A friend from Britt called to check up on me this afternoon. I got a card from my aunt today. It's fun to get mail.
