      Am feeling great! Sleeping right through night and hardly any pain! Physio has said need to take pain meds regularly though cos as she uppers the intensity of sessions I need to be able to manage and it's best to take regularly rather than to hurt and only take after

      Boy am I pleased to hear that!!!!  I'm over the moon for you and also even more hopeful that my second knee experience might by something like the first - not really painful, but more discomfort at times.  It's so good to have those on here who are having an easier time of it to balance it out!  Good for you!!!!!

    Good to hear of your great progress!?????

    Work hard at physical therapy, and ask questions so you learn WHY you are doing what you're doing. That helps to keep you motivated!

    Waiting to hear your newest successes coming up!
