Today is the first day after my ACL/MCL surgery. I feel tired, sore throat, and SORE in my knee. My knee is throbbing, the pills that I'm taking are Percoset, Ibuprofen, and an Aspirin. They help me a lot. I wish I could take off my wrap right now, but the doc says I gotta wait til Thurs. Just had lunch, a nice plate from Panda Express. That's the good thing about being on bedrest you can get people (my wife) to do just about anything you ask. My wife is the best servant lol It's pretty hard to keep my feet elevated and straight, without it hurting. I hate it when I have to use the bathroom, cause I gotta get up outta my comfy position, then come back and try to find that same spot I was in! The dr told my wife, that I can't put any pressure on my leg for a WHOLE ENTIRE MONTH! For most people they are able to put some pressure on it after 2 days, but I guess mine was really jacked up! I meet with him on Thurs so he can tell me what happens from here on. ...Right now I am wishing I had XBoX 360 or some kinda game console, or some non stop movies to watch. I think I wouldn't be in so much pain, if my daughter who is 15months wouldn't climb all over me all the time! haha But I love her and she keeps me company, so I guess I like it. Pain level from 1-10 at this moment a 3.
