post op day 3



Today I got to take off the bulky bandage/dressing!
I even got to take a shower (with my leg wrapped in plastic wrap),  Progress is slow....still can't fully extend my leg nor put weight on it.  Progress is progress.  Everyday I feel a little bit better, a little stronger, so I really can't complain.  Pain is a lot less - the regularly scheduled pain meds, ice/elevate times, and rest have really paid off.   I know I've slept more in the past 3 days than I've slept in the past 8 years.  My first PT appointment is set for Thursday. That, I'm told, is when the "fun" will really begin!  I'm saving some pain meds for post PT pain!!!
