Knee Surgery

Yesterday I was very excited to have surgery.  I injured myself in the navy in 2006 and never got it repaired.  It was something I have been needing for a couple years and I kept putting it off until I could not run anymore.  I knew that I was damaging me knee more and more but I kept running on it.  Then it was bone on bone and I wound up hurting the good knee by running and favoring the bad one.  I was scheduled to have surgery on my right leg two weeks ago and it was rescheduled by the surgeon.  So yesterday I was thrilled to have the procedure.  What I did not expect was that the anesthesia would wear off right around 2 am.  Oh my God... I was in so much pain, and still am.  I am a big guy but today I feel like being a big baby.  I feel like someone just beat me up.

  1. Well I am not sure I would be excited about a surgery but if it helps then I guess I see why you would be excited. I hope all goes well and that you have a safe and speedy recovery. And its ok to be big guy and feel like a baby, pain is pain!
