The calm after the storm!

So, literally nothing has been happening – after such a fun-packed weekend, full of excitement, the post-op recovery is rather dull.

I move between a warm glow of the affects of the pain medication to being rather ‘ouchy’ when I’m performing my exercises… and yes… yes… YES… I AM DOING MY EXERCISES!!!!

The pain is manageable, and pretty much all focused on the wound. The actual knee joint doesn’t really hurt (and indeed hurts a lot less than the left knee which is obviously still all crunchy and crackly… the new knee join is smooth and silky when it moves in comparison).

I can’t take the dressing off until Saturday, which I can’t wait to do… photos to follow then!!!!! (just to pre-warn the squeamish amongst you).

Until then… exercise, rest, repeat! That’s my mantra this week! Oooohm!
