Well, I had my knee operated on yesterday. The surgery went well (almost didn't happen, long story I'll be filing a complaint with the hospital/surgeon).
I have a wonderful surgeon, he even took pictures! I will be scrapping them. Oh!!! While I was being preped for surgery one of the nurses had an altered clipboard! It was really cute, the back of it was covered in SB paper that had big band-aids on it!! So of course we chatted about SB! DH & DS's just rolled their eyes and made funny comments! LOL That maybe why I got pictures, heehee
Anyway, surgeon removed all the damaged tissue and scar tissue, also smoothed out the back of the knee cap which was really rough (arthritis?). Surgeon was still upset that Worker's Comp waited more than a year to decide that something was really wrong. He said that I have some perment damage to the knee due to that. I was home within a few hours, feeling really good. Only took the heavy duty pain medicine after I went to bed last night as the cat jumped right in the middle of the knee. DH had to return to work, my Dad brought me and the boys home. DS's clucked over me worse than I cluck over them when they've had surgery! (I was very pleased as they really helped me out, plus it made me feel good that they were really concerned) A friend of ours brought over supper so we didn't have to worry about that. I start physical therapy on Monday and not sure about when I'll be returning to work, didn't get paper work on that yet. I must say that I have no pain this morning and it's been about 12 hours since I had my last pain pill, so I will currently deem the surgery a success!! I hope to scrap/play a little but think I will do that tomorrow or Sunday, I don't want to do too much too soon as I have done that in the past and then had to pay for it!! Better go and put ice on the knee, hope everyone has a great weekend
