Cheers all. So yeah it's apparently a simple op. I go in on Monday. Bit of a shock TBH but I'll live it seems.

 

It is pretty much straight in and straight out and you will be mobile within a few weeks or so!


Hope it all goes well

Sorry to hear this! They seem to be on the ball so there's a good chance they'll get it all!


Just out of interest, if you don't mind, how did they test/diagnose that?


I've been several times to various Docs/specialists for my knees, it's never even been mentioned! :?


The very best of luck to you

Pretty significant visual anomaly on the scan which was confirmed with a blood test and 'scraping' (I thought it was called a biopsy but what do I know?).

Well, it took some time to come to terms with what happened. Won't bore you but lots more was found and I've just finished my final post operative chemotherapy.


It caused a massive flare of osteo-arthritis which I didn't even know I had and that I said making even a little walking around quite difficult. But it'll pass and I do have solid painkillers if I need them. Thought I'd drop in and update you all, given it's been a good six months, I could have goosed six by now and the ban would be over...!

Sorry to hear you've had such a rough time :( Sounds like you're an absolute trooper through it all though! You have my respect in bucketfulls for that!


Hope you heal up well, listen to the docs so you exercise when you need to but also rest when they say to. :thumb:
