Getting Ready for Surgery!!

 Yesterday I had a visit with the Orthopedic
specialist and it's now time to get the knee
taken care of!  The swelling is getting worse
and still painful.  I have been dealing with this
issue for the past 6 months and had the knee
Baker's cyst taken care of a month ago plus
a steriod shot to help.  I was good for a week
or so and then all the sudden it was back to
pain, swelling and at night something it was
hard to sleep.  Then on the 16th I again was
awaken with muscle cramps to the point I 
couldn't stand on that leg.  This is an on going
issue that I just deal with.

At my age there is a lot to deal with and
I am not one to just sit in my chair.  Life
again is just so short, go out and enjoy it!!

The date is set for surgery, have to have a
covid test 48 hours prior and then they
were nice enough to setup all the PT appt.
for the next month!!

They have just added a ekg test before
 surgery.  Stopping some of my meds
so surgery isn't a hazard.
