Glad to hear that you're home.

Take your meds religiously and don't be afraid to complain about the pain.

There's no reason to suffer needlessly in this day and age.

Wish a speedy recovery.
Fairly common major ortho surgery complication (DVT - Deep vein thrombosis) &
be very thankful it was detected and treated on time , as it is the gateway to
Pulmonary Embolism!!!!

Well, Stan! It's great to know you're ok. I was really worried, until I read this thread, and then I got REALLY upset. I'm glad you are on the men, and not in terrible pain anymore. My very best to you and your lovely wife, and to that crazy friend of ours(and a great friend he is)....Fred.

Best,
Dan

Glad to hear you are home. Having spent the summer recovering from two surgeries and complications, I can understand what you've gone through. Work hard on rehab!

Good to hear that it's getting better !!

It took more than a year for my mothers swelling to go completely away. My uncle also had it done as well, and his swelling took the same amount of time.

Best of luck healing that knee, my mother also wishes you the best !!

Good luck to you. It sounds like you are on the right track. You're working hard and your doctors were really on the ball. Good for you.
