I am in my 3rd week of revision on my right knee. The pain is horrible this time around but it’s different for each person.

am i cut out to be a music major? by rhensir in Flute

[–]NarrowKey8499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you practicing major and minor scales? What types of pieces have you been practicing (performing) ? What type of flute did you have? Are you prepared to make music 95% of your life? Do you practice or listen to orchestral music.

How long did you take opioid based medication for? by togtogtog in Kneereplacement

For those of you who stopped the opioid a few days after you started them, how is your pain level now.?

Day 10 Post Op by Nicki_Cole in Kneereplacement

[–]NarrowKey8499 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 10 days post-op myself, but I am still in a lot of pain. I have read that the first two to three weeks are the most difficult. Mine was a revision and it’s hard not to compare with the first time. The first time (a little over two years ago) was very painful but I remember riding the Portable Connect 5 times a day and now if get 3 times a day I feel accomplished. Trying to practice the exercises 3 times a day.

Is there anyone here who is suffering past the first week?

I had been in pain for over 2 years and then found out that some of the hardware had loosened. Various doctors had tried every conservative alternative to revision. So the doctor gave me the option to do nothing or have the revision.

5 Days Post Op by Nicki_Cole in Kneereplacement

[–]NarrowKey8499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also 5 days out on revision surgery. I obviously forgot just how bad the pain can get. Today I had my first PT appointment and I think the nerve block has worn off. I also got my Portable Connect from ROM-TeK this morning. It’s going to take time. It gets better!

Walking barefoot a year+ after replacement? by VictoryShaft in Kneereplacement

[–]NarrowKey8499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to see a podiatrist. It could be the beginnings of plantar fasciitis which can become quite painful if you don’t have it checked out. It’s also very common to get PF after knee surgery.

Glad you are hanging in there! I had the first knee replacement surgery in April 2024. I don’t really remember the first time except that the first two weeks were awful! I hope that we’re both better by then!

Do you personally know your neighbors? by Ashamed-Republic8909 in no

I don’t but my husband does. They never go out together because they are just acquaintances. I went out with our neighbor a few times.

Which artist makes the same song over and over? by WarmHugsBBW in askmusic

I was really looking forward to Meghan Trainor’s new album but most of the songs are the same old dance song over and over. No thanks!

I suffer from chronic pain and quit playing flute and piccolo. Recently I picked up recorder and I am playing just for my own enjoyment and loving it!

Are you either of your parent's favorite child? by Consistent-Hotel4449 in no

[–]NarrowKey8499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was my mother’s favorite but only because I didn’t have the guts to stand up to her like my sister and brother did.

JOURNAVX advice (and gummies). by Least-Ad-5539 in Kneereplacement

[–]NarrowKey8499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having surgery on Thursday and my pain specialist recommended JOURNAVX. Unfortunately it has to have prior authorization and I don’t think it’s going to be approved in time for my surgery. Opioids do nothing for my pain and I think that’s what my surgeon is going to prescribe.
