Hey Wanda, thanks for the concern. I did have a really bad day yesterday. Thought I would play the tough hero act and cut my pain meds in half. Wrong thing to do
The AS part of things felt good this week on the increased Oxy so I though after 5 days it was time to try my normal lower dose. Oh, terrible day and night.
It's 4 am and can't sleep, can't start up the upped dose of Oxy until my AM dose at 7 this morning so I'm just riding things out with more percocet. Fevers are finally down though and that's a good thing. I have my post op visit with my surgeon Monday, I sure hope he is pleased with things so far and doesn't talk about manipulating this knee early like he said last week. He will be leaving after my appointment to go on a hunting trip for a week and I hope to have things moving on my own by then. I have managed to get outside several times a day to walk up and down our road with crutches so I am keeping myself moving.
It's just one big waiting game now. My surgeon and I are both waiting on pins and needles to see if this whole thing works. I don't know who is more anxious at this point, him or me. We'll see what he says on Monday.
Cindy
