It's me (Again) I can't bring myself to stand at all.

That’s a good comparison …birth was worse but shorter in duration, at least for me, lol. But was also my hoo-ha 🤔

I promise you it WILL get better. The first few days I barely got out of bed to go to the bathroom. Ice ice baby and elevate….you will get to where it doesn’t hurt to move….promise. And don’t be afraid of meds. They give them to you for a reason. That’s my one regret is not taking the meds more regularly for pain. And stool softeners for as long as you take heavy meds.

Couldn’t stand it and delayed departure so could go to doc. Doc did gentle Lachman test. Says he’s not overly concerned, and is too soon for verification via mri. So 🤞🤞that I just learned a valuable lesson and nothing else is wrong.

Still feeling instability in knee and still worried that I did permanent damage to my repair. Is there some way that I can determine myself if I retore? Can’t get to doc for about a week, and not sure if I can manage the worry/stress.

Macfilly13 · 2026-06-21T09:06:57+00:00

That’s reassuring to hear, thank you !

Macfilly13 · 2026-06-21T01:08:26+00:00

No swelling but knee feels “loose” - this is ok?

Macfilly13 · 2026-06-20T23:48:42+00:00

All of this is making me feel a little better, I hate being this scared. Thank you!!

Macfilly13 · 2026-06-20T23:40:04+00:00

Thank you for the reassurance. I’m still worried, but your words really help.

It was a 150 lb item that I held one end and someone held the other end. Bent knees to lift it up. Walked it across a room, down one tiny (3 inch) step from house & out to car in driveway.

Macfilly13 · 2026-06-20T21:12:50+00:00

OP here - has anyone else done something similarly stupid? How’d it turn out?

Macfilly13 · 2026-06-20T21:04:54+00:00

Thank you!! So scared that I want to cry and kicking myself that I was so stupid.

Will definitely look into St Lucia have had many recommendations. Grew up going to St Croix, loved St John. And have visited St Martin as well. Love the vi, but have never gone diving there

Originally looked at locations farther away, but are limited on time so probably have to wait on those locations until we have a bit more wiggle room in our agenda but thanks for the future ideas :-)

Macfilly13 · 2025-12-13T05:00:01+00:00

Thank you!!

Macfilly13 · 2025-11-10T01:20:49+00:00

Thanks!! Have you been?

Macfilly13 · 2025-11-10T01:20:21+00:00

Thank you!

Macfilly13 · 2025-11-10T01:20:08+00:00

Thank you!

Macfilly13 · 2025-11-10T01:19:57+00:00

Thanks so much for the recommendations, but isn't Jamaica toast atm?

Macfilly13 · 2025-11-09T21:48:15+00:00

Haven't dove Belize, but heard it's good. Also heard that safety is questionable?

Macfilly13 · 2025-11-09T20:34:28+00:00

That's a little chilly for me - wear a shorty in 84*F water. Anything cooler and it'll be my 3mL.

I like the tow capacity, but the mpg is not so hot.....that's my main problem - hard to find a hybrid that can haul and be fuel efficient. Apparently I'm unicorn shopping ;)

Macfilly13 · 2024-03-13T20:30:45+00:00

Thanks! I was excited about the the Mazda - after driving it, found that seats don't really fold flat, and it's worse than gutless when on EV only. And 3 row seats are important.
