And I'm exhausted. Time for a cup of tea and a rest in my easy chair.
Now 4 weeks post-operation today.
Negatives:
1. Pee'd myself getting off the exercise bike - just a few drops of bladder stress release but soooooo embarrassing!
2. Tore a bit of skin off my good shin from which bled like a stuck pig - lucky I hadn't given myself my injection of 'blood thinner' (Clexane) before I went.
Positives:
1. Made those pedals on the exercise bike do the full 360 degrees and then pedalled it for 2 minutes - Hooray!
2. Managed to get my knee flexion finally past the 90 degree mark and just under 100 degrees - another Hooray!
Now, where's that cuppa tea!

An hour later - I've had my cuppa and some brekkie, dozed in front of the TV for 15 minutes - I feel much better and I do notice the improvement in the range of movement in my new knee joint!
I created this blog to talk about my home region. I've used many images, including archival images but mostly I've used my own images.
