Another vote for keeping ahead of the pain with the meds, haven't seen it mentioned, but along with the pain meds, load up on the stool softeners. Good luck with the recovery.

Good to hear from you RSKY. Glad you are happy with the new knee. Keep up with your PT exercises.

Glad it went well and you can soon be looking forward to better mobility. With all the advances they've made in the last few years I wonder if Melanie Safka will update her most popular song.

Over 95% of knee replacements last 20 years or more. Contrary to the idea you can wear it out, more active people have fewer problems.

On a side note, everybody has been friendly, very helpful, and telling me constantly to let them know if I need anything.

If you are relaxed, it's easier to harvest your organs.

JK!

Just woke up about 1:00 in the morning. Something not right, found wire to call box and jerked it. Not the right wire. Catheter hose!! Nineteen year old nurse's aide got it untangled for me. My face red. She's grinning from ear to ear.

DAMMNN,, Make a fool out of myself.

Good reminder. I forgot to mention that. Cannot be emphasised enough.
