BillyBalata Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Couple more days and I'll be joining Tbone on the IR. Spending tomorrow going to 5 dr appts. Assuming I pass inspection, Wednesday I get my new bionic knee. The things a guy will do to get hooked up to that morphine again. Knowing the power of the huddle vibes, any spare ones you guys may have can't hurt. But all in all, there's tons more people out there that need them more then me. All I really ask...if i don't come out the other side all right...if someone could just please, please, keep TimC away from my fantasy teams? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdrudge Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Are you getting just one or both of them done? My mother got one knee done 2 years ago and the other last year. She was really only immobile for about a week. After that she was limited but could get around some. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyBalata Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Well...it appears I passes inspection. At least no one has said anything different about tomorrow yet. They didn't like my high blood pressure but I told them it was their fault cuz they were making me nervous. Gotta call in later tonite to confirm, but I'm first up in the morning. Only thing I need to decide is what form of anesthesia to have. Nerve block injection/catheter above the leg is a given. But need to close between being totally put under, or have a spine block where you are somewhat awake. Tbone says I should go all the way under. Got another buddy who just had a partial knee done a month ago...said the spinal block...you may be technically awake but you're not really.

Watching them extracting half your leg, fiddling about, blood and stuff everywhere and the surgeon mentioning to the nurses how hung over he is? F that, get the whole anesthesia enchilada.

Tell'em you're A MAN and just tie a belt around your thigh and let you control the flow! Good luck with the operation. My mom lived in agony with a bad hip for many years and we finally got her to replace it. One month later she's doing great and kicking herself for waiting so long. You'll do super!

T_bone65 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Good Luck BB, my medicated thoughts and prayers will be with you. As you are getting cut open I will be getting my staples removed from my hip. Do the full Monty, don't go half ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
