My new hardware...

[XTrmXJ]

I had a Morphen pump with a hose into my knee, Darvicet, and Motrin, both times.. That was a fun couple of weeks.. Nothing in my knee is stock and I had 70% cartilage removed, even bruised the bone really badly, still have no feeling on the outside of my leg from the knee down... BTW Im only 27

Man, y'all are making me happy to have all OEM hardware. I'm thinking of having grease Zerks installed on all joints though for maintenance .

when i practiced as an occupational therapist assisstance, i worked with alot of total hip and total knee replacements.

i actually had some "older" patients that would spray WD40 (the product, not the member here at SDD ) on their bad knees.

they told me that it really made a big diff.

It sounds like we are all walking "hobbling" wounded. Another bad day for me. Level 9 pain, even with tramidal and ibpropin. I put up a replacement door on one of our outbuildings, and paid the price.
Where are my adopted sons, Bama, and Crumm?

I have a friend that has two sons, and he said that they never can be found when he needs their help, but they are never late for dinner.

I have a friend that has two to 6 months to live, (Liver cancer) so I know I should count my blessings. There are many others who are hurting worse than we are.

Thanks Bama;

It is just that things have to get done, and sometimes no one is around to help. Most of the younger people have jobs and are at work, and the older ones have just as much to do as I do, so they are taking care of business also. The bright side is that someday, after the next hip replacement, I will be back to normal and doing projects and walking without pain. That will be a great day
BTW next surgery is scheduled for September 5th. If I can hold out that long.
Surgeon is booked solid.

PB blaster should work better that wd-40. I would use that.

Naw, they shoulda just put a grease zerk in it right away, then you could lube it up with some good synthetic grease once a week
