LOL. Yeah I think they were the wirst! LOL. However I can now go back to my anti inflammatory and I'm back on Tramadol rather than Hydrocodone so when my leg is strong enough I'll be able to drive. Yes!
Nope I sure can't drive
While I am on Narcotics.
But i save money......
LOL

PT today - walk
Break my twenty year habits
Harder than you think!
•••••••••
Heel, toe, bend the knee
That's hardest for me to do
Leg was always stiff!
•••••••••
UP AND OVER BARS
should be easy to do, no?
Only two inch high
••••••••••
Then why do I drip
Look like I took a shower
After two passes?
••••••••••
Actually my ROM is pretty good. So now we work on my gait. Which is something that really needs work. I used to compensate for weakness and pain in so many ways that my PT is having to watch me walk and then correct something different every time. Plus go back and reinforce the corrections from the other times. Lift my foot straight up not circle to the side. Use my knee not my hips. Bend the knee to walk. Depend on leg to stand. Just a few of the things I usually do wrong! LOL I should be doing that but of course 20 years of limping and not being able to stand on it have taught me many ways to compensate - all bad! LOL
Hope everyone is enjoying warmer weather for a change.
Much love

So you have been living with this for decades? What delayed your surgery originally? I would have been in there like a dirty old shirt insisting that I get this problem fixed - and NOW! lol.
We delay for kids,
We delay for our husbands,
We delay for work.
Looking after ourselves
About the last on our list,
Should always be first
We can't help the rest
If we do not look after
The person who helps.

Oh Red you are right!
I waited for two reasons
Family and fear!
LOL. I actually had to wait because 20 years ago they did not do TKR before you were 60. Because they only lasted 10 years. They told me to wait as long as possible. The implants have been getting better ever since. I got worse little by little. When I finally had no reaction to cortisone, they tried the chicken wattle based stuff at 2,000 a shot. That did not help much. So i scheduled an appt with my ortho to get the preliminary done and set a date. The mammogram depth saw I had an apt with ortho and left a mag for me to go upstairs for another view. I did and got on the train for BC. Had to cancel ortho and schedule my biopsy. That was over three years ago. So when I went to my ortho to see what he thought and he offered me a date I snapped at it. I did not want anything to interfere!! LOL I really thought he would have told me to wait for at least more months so I was real happy when he said yes. When I had decided to do my knee the first time I had screwed up my courage. So when I had to have my BMX my mind took it well cause I was thinking of sx already! LOL
Much love

what i am finding bizarre, is that physical therpy tells us we are moving all wrong! you'd think it would come naturally! i do get to start pt next week, because there is seriously something wrong with cancer side shoulder, le'ist said "PT!" i am glad, because it really hurts, and i havent been able to swim. i got in the public pool to cool of, and good resistance for le arm. but, cant lift arm in the right way to swim, without excruciating pain. no ocean for me this summer! lots of my nodes are inflammed.

Soft breezes mussing my hair,
Loving each minute.
