The doctor had been and says my drain and catheter can come out when I am up? I am asking for pain killers as often as I can have them. My knee feels very heavy and stiff at the moment, but I am sure once I start the exercised things will improve.
Thank you Jen , so good to talk to someone who knows exactly how you feel .x

The only thing I was worried about this time was the noise from all the hammering and drilling? They gave me some sedation and I never heard a thing!!
Much better than that dreadful hangover feeling from a general!!
