Back home from lock-up :laughing9:. Was locked up in a nursing center for two weeks while getting right knee re-hab done. Total right knee joint was replaced Feb. 27th. Left knee will be replaced on June 11th. Yes I was in horrible pain, the kind that only Vicodin and Tordol could handle (together). I wish that when I was discharged today, that I would have had my scrip filled for the Oxycodone, that they prescribed for me, sure would help a lot with my sleeping at night, Oh well, can do it tomorrow. I have no pain during the day. I have about 5 - 6 more weeks of knee therapy before the other one gets replaced...oh joy :BangHead The surgeon says that for an old guy, I am doing pretty good, I have regained 105% of 130% flexability in my right leg, and that by the time he does my left one, I should have at least 110%. The rest, I'll have to do on my own....and I will! I at least want to be able to squat down to dig my targets (if not get on my knees)......NGE
