surgury

I just had some surgury done on my rt. knee. my advice is if they ask you about pain levels after surgury - lie. when I got out at 6pm I could walk and had no pain at all. by 2:30 this morning I was in agony. keep they body druged and the pain shouldn't be too bad but its a real bitch to overcome serious pain once the pain killers wear off!

Sounds like my ACL surgery... They pump you so full of drugs at the hospital you feel fine despite a 5" incision across the top of your knee and having a large piece of tendon removed for the graft. Enough morphine, and you really could walk on a bloody stump. Then they send you home - with a bottle of high-dose ibuprofen tablets , and by the evening, your leg feels hot enough to fry eggs on, and the pain is back, with interest.

And then therapy starts, initially consisting of using a machine that bends your leg for you at the knee to prevent excessive scar tissue from forming - six hours a day...
