Thanks Pat. The pain from Surgery and from doing Exercises is the most pain I've ever experienced. But I know I have to take my Meds, do my exercises, grit my teeth, and hang in there. I do worry about taking such strong narcotics, but I know it's temporary. Also, icing helps a lot. I've been told that a successful outcome is 90% dependent on participation in Physio, so I'm motivated.
On a more positive note, working through the pain is worth it. Every day there is a bit more flexibility in the knee, and a bit less pain. For me, it's been 9 days since surgery, and i was walking today with just a cane. Thanks for your good wishes.
