1 week in on my knee replacement journey.
I’m only going to post every couple of days. Not very exciting. Healing is laying with leg above heart, up every hour for walking, knee bending, ice knee every couple of hours, rinse and repeat.

For those preparing for a knee replacement, stock up on books or shows to stream.

Physically, things are going great. The bruising continues to darken and looking pretty brutal. But pain has been minimal. Stopped codeine several days ago, spent a day on Tylenol and have stopped that as well.

Incision site looks very good. Dry, no leaking. This time next Thursday, I’ll have them removed. Hopefully will be allowed to shower then 🤞
They sent me home with theses cool pre-moisted large wipes. Like full body wet wipes, they work really well don’t have rinse like a sponge bath.
