WNG, I cheated with the 'tilde' over the n..... on my IPad, it will give "suggestions for words", when I typed piñon.... it showed up that way, so I just hit on the suggested word and... WAA LAA!
or just hold the letter down and the choices will appear above it and then just choose. ñń

How long did it take you to get to 130˚ flex. Sorry to hear it still swells. I was a little too active today and my knee is not happy tonight, I just hope there is gain with pain at some point.
It was slow going from 120° to 130°. I hit 125° at 8 weeks, 130° at 8 months.

Do you have any numb spots? The outer portion of my upper calf is numb for about 6" down / 4" wide from the knee joint down. On the inside of my lower leg, from about halfway down to my ankle, is a 'patch' of numbness....
Doc says it may always be that way or might go away with time.... he can't say for sure.

Pain is quite variable.... some days not too bad, the next day worse. Kinda get used to it.
My biggest issue is some days the knee will buckle, basically loosing control of supporting weight / walking. More prevalent if I don't use a cane. Doc doesn't know if it is nerve damage interfering with muscle control. He says we have to give it more time, then he'll start testing.

Do you have any numb spots?
Yes, below my kneecap center to the outside. The numb spot is about 8" vertical 4" horizontal.
Do you know which knee replacement you got? Mine was Stryker Triathlon. The incision was 8".

I knew there was a secret!
Or, you could type Alt+164 on a PC.
Or, you could just do a Google search for "n tilde" (or any other odd characters) and copy/paste the letter from the text of the search results. (I use this method more than I'd like to admit.)

Glad to know that the numbness might be a 'normal' side effect. Mine is a Zimmer Bionet ---- lifetime guarantee! :unsure::eek::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Good morning, low -7 and high to 14°F. Wind S 7 mph. Cloudy.
She's warming up. Was -24 overnight.

On the knobby knee survey, mine are 20" each circumference. As for the pain, I have CBD oil and other stuff that was only legalised a few years ago, trouble is I cannot afford an impaired driving ticket so don't use any of it if I am driving. The left one gives out regularly IF I am not using my cane. If I anticipate standing for a long period of time I will take the cane and use it. Otherwise it just hangs on the hanger hook in the back seat of the car.

My cats and me have an agreement. I don't take their pictures and they don't leave me any brown presents anywhere but in the litter boxes. 5 cats (down from 16) and 7 litter boxes.

The animals all think I am G-d, and on the seventh day He rested. That is exactly what I am going to do today.

Have a safe day all
