Surgery went well!

Posted , 7 users are following.

Hey everyone!

I had my left total knee yesterday and went well! Lots of pain right now but I am walking in the halls and going to the bathroom with a walker. Throat is very sore from the tube they put down it during surgery. I have been sleeping in 2 hour increments. As long as everything goes well this morning I will be going home later today!

Thank you everyone for your support, it really helps to talk to everyone that knows what I'm going through!

    Congratulations, Melissa, well done. It amazes me that you are walking straightaway when after six weeks, I cannot straighten my leg enough to do so! I wish you a rapid and full recovery.
