I have woken up this morning feeling like a new woman!!
I can get into a sitting position unaided and move my bottom a bit too!! And I can Bend my operated knee fairly well.
I will add more as the day goes on as it's only 6.15am.
It's now 10am and I have walked down the corridor, had a wash at the sink and had my catheter removed!! Wow, it's getting better!!
I am pretty much pain free whilst sitting on the bed, but it's a bit uncomfortable to move around much. Note I said uncomfortable, not painful!!
It's now nearly noon, I've been for a wee, on my own, plus washed my hands and got back to the bed without any help!! They are now definitely talking of discharge tomorrow!!!
It's amazing how excited I am by little achievements!!
It's now 17.15 and I've been given the all clear to go home tomorrow!!
I've been up and down stairs, practised getting dressed and walked around, alls good, but I'm done in now.
It is good updating this as it happens, cos when I read back it will be a true picture once vie forgotten it all!!

The holiday of a lifetime, after my cortisone injection, whilst it was working, probably one of the last times that I was able to walk any distance without. my stick
Sharon, glad to hear all went well and sorry you had a rough day yesterday - quite common I think with all the drugs etc to be sick (I was for 12 hours post op) and also have low BP. Pain free - brilliant and you'll be sprinting around before you know it !!
