The surgery for me was worth it, but dont want to do it again lol..But like you I can now walk pain free for the most part

KEEP a eye out for infection and I assume your on blood thinners for clotting,, MAKE sure they test your blood every few days,, They over dosed me,and my Doc was pissed..Ill PM you my Hm# if you have any questionjs,,,,,,,Rich

How's the knee doing Larry? I get my cast off tomorrow, then start therapy. I'm hoping no surgery needed.

Over a month with a cast on! It should of healed by now, lets hope.
I had ligaments cut to straighten my right knee about 24 years ago and never went to therapy, big mistake. Before I tore the cartledge (back in June) my left knee was my good knee. Its coming along very well now. I should of had it fixed sooner but, OH hell thats what happens to thick headed Irishmen.
Don't over do it at therapy. I know, just ask me about my shoulder :'(
Where are you going for therapy?

Heater_Guy · 02-01-2010, 02:47 PM

The closest places that takes my insurance are down at 309 and Shawnkweiler Rd. or up at 309 and 100. I gotta figure out soon which one to use. Therapy will probably start right away as soon as the cast comes off.

Good luck with that Brett

Thanks Beez, 50 years old and now I can learn how to walk.

Hey Lar, hows the knee coming ???
Follow DR's orders and easy on the knee till therapy makes it all better.

Stitches came out yesterday but he won't release me to go back to work at my main job. So I'm off for another 2 weeks. With the storm coming friday I guess I lucked out :)

Hope all is well with the knee. I have a shoulder problem. Maybe you should stay off your knees when Beezer & Old Dawg is around.

fish · 02-05-2010, 11:41 PM

shoulder problem ??? usually that affects your wrist

You heard the expression "the operation was a success but the patient died" :( well not quite, its a long story.

Heater_Guy · 03-03-2010, 05:43 PM

The doc gave me prescriptions for Valium and Percocet after surgery last Thursday so I might have signed up for the Boston Marathon too. I'm really not sure. ;) I'm starting therapy again tomorrow and it's gonna be intense this time. Gotta get back to work. You gotta get better Larry, I need somebody to race against.

I got lots of time to read as I'm retired. If you are not back to work yet you have lots of time to write. What's the story ???
