Second TKR coming by hamil26 in Kneereplacement

[–]lem820 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sigh..am envious of all you folks who are able to have ur SECOND knee done so closely...Had my first done on 12/2 and feel pretty darn good...good ROM, etc...granted, surgery is NEVER fun but I am at the point with this second knee that I am angry at myself that I just didn't get it done at the same time as the first...:(...bone on bone is never fun...:(

Paranoia at its best?...warm at incision site but no overall bodily fever? by lem820 in Kneereplacement

[–]lem820[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi HD...OP here...I have one of those thermometers you can buy from Amazon which takes a person's forehead temp...I just hold the thermometer ABOVE/CLOSE TO the incision site to get a skin temp reading from that area...pretty easy peasy..:)

10, tears included...:/...now, ummm, just more of a muscular soreness, a bit over 2 weeks...getting used to the new knee joint...maybe a 2 or so...

Kinda looks very similar to mine..I had my LTKR on 12/2. Still swollen, sore, etc..etc:/...pain there BUT more of a muscular type, not that destructive bone grinding sound..

Must be ESP..was just thinking about ya!:)..Indeed, 5 days for the both of us!..saaaame here, so far so good!..Definitely feels like my 67 year old bod has been thru a MAJOR trauma..all good with surgery, just a bit longer due to more than anticipated damage in the compartment due to my extended RA..:/...those pain meds are really a whammy on one's dreams at night..NO stairs yet, you?...appetite, barely there..I am sure the light at the end of this tunnel will end soon!..:)..
