Well I finally got my date through for my TKR Surgery, 14th March, nervous but so positive about having the procedure done and getting on the road to recovery, this has been a real quick turnaround which I'm really surprised at.

I have been doing the exercises given in a DVD from the hospital and been going to the gym, I have to say the muscles are much improved from where they were 5 months ago, that can only be good news for a speedy positive recovery, watch this space! I'll be on here doing my daily diary of recovery, and probably crying my eyes out.

Will keep all you good people updated on how things go. Thank you to everyone who gave me advice and all your kind words..

    Oh no... another week. Well, get some trashy novels, chocolate and a glass or two of wine. Then sit back and relax. You probably have everything ready for your hospital trip and for home so you can just be lazy.  Of course you still need to walk and exercise to keep those muscles pumping. 

    Keep us posted
