Sorry I haven't updated for a few days, but, I over did it on Saturday and I hurt my leg a little. I went to the Doctor today and was told I had ripped one of my stitches and that I had some blood in my knee that was causing pain and swelling. He told me I HAVE TO BE CAREFULLY FOR 3 MONTHS!!!!! I also told him I was walking without a cane in the house and he got mad at me for that too. He told me this is just a minor set back and there should be little problems with the recovery and I have done no damage to the new knew, thank god. I have been a good boy since and have been sitting in my chair, icing and taking it easy. It's so very hard to sit all day long and then sit all evening as well. I am such an active person that it really feels like torture to sit all day, all night. Day in and day out. I do know that in the end I will be so very grateful I did what the doctor has told me and will do my very best to conform to all the rules and regulations he has set forth from this day on. I am to continue to take it easy for the remainder of the week. I am to go to physical therapy as if nothing has happened and I am to ice it several times a day. All in all I do feel better. I have ZERO pain in the joint and I know this surgery was a complete success. I just cant wait to take my new knee out for a trial run............ Yea, right.......... Just testing to see if anyone really reads this stuff!!!!!!!
