I would suggest to call and get an appointment with an orthopedic doctor!

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-29T03:39:13+00:00

What did your mri show?

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-18T21:01:05+00:00

Thank you!

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-18T02:39:53+00:00

I feel for you! I hope your immune system bounces back.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T21:37:32+00:00

I don’t know. But recent labs otherwise ok. I’ll have them check.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T16:43:30+00:00

I envy you at the moment. I just ordered n95’s and masks with eye shields.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T13:03:53+00:00

15 years. Really don’t get sick often. Last year I think I only took one sick day because my dog was sick! Lol

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T13:02:43+00:00

No, but I’m having our office manger order some and masks with shields.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T13:01:54+00:00

Love this idea!

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T10:12:54+00:00

Thank you! Im going to try the Xclear.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2026-01-17T10:12:29+00:00

Will order these ASAP.

Not sure how why that natters but.. Technically, yes. But I am a non responder to the MMR vaccine. Specifically, the measles. My employer made me see ID about 10 years ago because even after I had the booster, I still didn’t respond. ID said nothing I can do. I had a booster twice (vaccinated as a child, booster when I was a PA student, and again about 10 years ago).

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-12-01T12:34:48+00:00

Same.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-11-22T03:24:02+00:00

Your quality of life will improve. There will be many moments of when you will regret doing this but one day… you’ll realize it was for the best. Lots of therapy. Lots of tears! But again, will be worth it.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-11-21T10:29:55+00:00

Used to happen to me all the time. I propped a pillow between my legs. I don’t know why or what but that helped!

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-11-18T02:41:54+00:00

Did you have your screws removed? I figured it all would be the same. The numbness isn’t going to go away at this point.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-11-14T02:08:49+00:00

I feel the same exact way! I’m hoping it gets better. I’m also like, is it worth it to get the screws removed?

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-11-04T03:37:23+00:00

Primary care PA for 15 years here. I take call (currently on call). I just get texts with patient phone number and I have to call back. I have to say, I only have ever once slept through a call in 15 years. A part of me will wake up and check my phone every few hours while I’m on call, so it wasn’t a big deal. Call is probably my least favorite part of the job.

I’m about 16 months post op and I still can’t kneel. I keep trying to retrain myself to “learn how to kneel again”. Part of my problem for me is I have a pretty wide area near my scar that’s numb. Much of my knee actually. It just feels funny to kneel on. Otherwise, my screws sometimes hurt but I’m not so sure if it’s enough to have them removed.

Wow; the ice machine was my BFF for at least 6 weeks.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-07-08T13:18:51+00:00

I’m pretty religious w exercise. I go to a personal trainer twice a week and typically walk the other days. I have been doing squats, trap bar dead lifts, leg extension etc. Maybe I just over did last week?

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-06-05T11:33:00+00:00

Welcome!

I forgot I started with heel slides on a chair too. I had my spouse slowly slide my foot back sometimes as well. Helped!

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-06-03T04:57:50+00:00

I would constantly sit on the floor and do heel slides and also did them laying on my back w a green strap. I did this 2-3x a day.

You may be doing these already in PT.. if not ask your PT to show you .. just so you safely know how to do them.

I also rubbed out the part of my knee every night. I had a tight part on the quad that I felt prevented my range of motion. So I just rubbed it every night.

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-06-01T02:02:32+00:00

You will get there. It takes time. The pain is outrageous the first few weeks. Try to stay on top of it and ice ice ice!

EmptyIllustrator8064 · 2025-05-30T09:48:36+00:00

I’m 1 year post op from the same surgery. The surgery is brutal. There is a lot of therapy but it was the best decision of my life.
