On the mend-ish

Mar 20, 2012 22:25

So I had my knee surgery finally, 3 wks ago last Monday.  I spent a week in the hospital, mostly do to a failure in getting me transferred, who's fault not sure, then 10 days at the rehab.  Staff couldn't have been nicer, and I guess it served it's purpose more or less, but I've made better gains since I've been home.  They've given me my own personal drill Sargent, trust me nothing motivates better than the promise of "I don't want to hurt you, but I will if you don't progress".  *eep*  She's 100% right, I damn sure don't want her bending my knee.

If I could just stop getting so stiff after each activity (or period of non activity) I would do better.  I keep forgetting that actually it's only been 3 weeks.  I feel like it's been forever.

Anyway, for those who may have this looming in their possible future, one thing they were absolutely right about, it hurts like a bitch.  Unrelenting, omg hurting, and sadly you must do the exercises, even though they hurt even worse, there is no getting better with out them.

my knee, my health, 2012
