Well had my surgery yesterday. Had bone on bone and they had to do a procedure where they clean out the bone fragments then use a needle to poke holes all in the pothole to get bloodflow. This allows bloodflow to rebuild either bone or cartalidge. No weight bearing, not even resting my foot o nthe ground for 6 weeks. Got out of surgery and hurt like hell, nurse gave me morphine iv push and two vicodin es, woo was I flying! They injected my knee with cortozone like stuff that numbed it for almost 20 hours after surgery. But when it wore off OMG!!! I woke up in tears from the pain, Mom had to help me all the way downstairs and into the recliner where I now sit. And to top it all off for the surgery, while I was sleeping they put in a cathidor and took it out before I woke up. They said "I might be uncomfortable to urinate for a day or so". Well that is the understatment of the year! Felt like I was pissing out a river of lava and razor blades! And its just now starting to go away. Im sure Twinkle McNugget knows the pain in that with what he goes through, it SUUUUUUCKS!
All in all I am in up spirits besides the obvious pain. Thank you to all of you in my corner praying. I thought I would be back to playing all day again, but to be honest, I cannot concentrate enough to do it. But soon I will be, as the pain starts to get more bearable. So dont be suprized if I do a ton of random replys to posts.
<3 you guys, I will keep you updated.

Hey Coragin! I'm glad everything is working out for you. Yeah, I have a buddy who was in a car accident and had to get a cath. He said it was the worst thing to ever happen to him. I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Atleast you're on the road to recovery! Enjoy those meds and feel better!

Nice work pulling the trigger. Better to bite the bullet now than continue to deal.

Well done. And hey - you can code and play UO while resting!

Hang in there Coragin! Your a braver man than I!
Good thing that "All things are temporary" especially painful things. Hopefully the pain will subside sooner than later but thankgod for modern medicine eh'?! :P
Soon this too will be a distant memory and hopefully look back on these times with a smile and be thankful their behind you.
Keep fightin' the good fight! Better times are right around the corner :)!
Look forward to more of your presence here at SUO when your up for it. Keep us updated on the healing process!

Seriously the penis catheter was nothing. It was the new nurse doing it twice and failing that pissed me off. :) I told the next nurse "Third times a charm, you f this one up and it aint happenin again." haha She got it first try. It wouldn't be so bad if it was only once. haha Try sitting down after a bone marrow biopsy tho. You feel great till the first time you put your back against something. haha I feel your pain man.
