Hi, went to my out patient review yesterday and everything is fine apart from a slight limp which I'm being referred to the physio for. I can drive at last ! So fed up with being stuck indoors on my own so it's a major milestone. Even my irritated unoperated leg is starting to feel better as I've been massaging it every day. Thank God things are getting back to normal !

    Yahoo!  Be safe!  I was given the all clear yesterday too but I'm a bit of a scaredy cat.  Physio said to drive up and down the drive first, then go round the block.  I think I'll take my time...
