On the Mend

August 10, 2023

Everything went well; my surgeon didn't find anything unexpected.  Surgery was an hour and I was home a little after 3 - hungry!


I'm numb from below my right knee all the way to my toes, which I can't move.  It's very weird. It's 6am the next day and I'm getting an inkling of tingling, but it's pretty numb.  I'm taking my norco to stay ahead - and once I know the pain level, I can decide on my pain management from there.  I roll around on 2 knee carts - one kindly is on loan from our neighbor, Kent.  Since our house is techincally split level, it's important to be able to transition from the main level to the big room where we spend most of our off-work time.  I think I'm heading back to bed or something...playing it by ear.  I was messing around with this site, fixing my featured images interface.  I have a beta gallery but it's a little wonky.  You can check it out if you want at Featured Image Gallery - Beta
