Guest guest Posted August 23, 2002 Report Share Posted August 23, 2002 HI Friends, I have just returned back from surgery once again and I don't know how much more I can do this. The ortho removed over 150cc of blood and fluid from my knee and is extremely worried about an infection. However, he feels that the antibiotics are compromising my GI tract and wants to give me a break until Monday when I see him again. I started crying in his office and in the car on the way home because the pain was so bad. He has given me plenty of percocet 10mg and told Ron that I am to remain quiet in bed today and see how tomorrow goes. If I have no relief by late this afternoon, I am off to the ER. Ice is also the word of the weekend. So I don't know if I will be on much more today. The pain is worse than the pain from the TKR. Ron is home with me today, thank God. Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes. Love and angel hugs, Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
