  • How many days post-op is this?

  • @studentphys101 Sorry I have been locked out of my account for a couple of months , but this was 10 days after surgery. I had 1 week of in home PT. Prior to this.

  • you're a brave soul ! I was just watching your video and I like your sense of humor. I was wondering how you are doing now?

  • @annab1433 Actually pretty well. I have been fighting swelling. The nerve endings are coming back and now my knee feels a little weird. It is a very unusual, not really painful, but weird sensation. I am walking more normally. I really need to strengthen it more. When I think about it I try to shift my weight over it, because for so long I have been right leg dominant.

Also,it clicks and like pops to the left when walking...?! I came home after 3 days and have a nurse come to my home 2x's a week. 2 days ago after she left i walked w/ my walker about 4 ft. and my knee caved in inwardly!!!! I FREAKED!. Going to Dr for post-op tmrw.Man,i better not need to redo this!!!

    Thanx for the video

  • thanks for posting . you are a real trooper hope you are doing much better now. your video helps to inspire people going through rehab and people who might one day want to become therapists

  • Wouldn't day 1 be in the hospital. You shouldn't forget the physical therapists that you had while you were in the hospital. Those are the ones that got you on your feet for the first time. How bout giving some credit to them!

  • May I ask why you had the blisters?
