Hello everyone. I had the revision of bk to above the knee on Nov 30th. Came home on the 5th of Dec. Would have came home earlier, but had heck of a time getting the pain under control. I don't remember having this much pain with the below knee. I had to call dr today and get him to prescribe pain patches to the tune of 236 bucks for five. Only good thing is that one patch lasts three days. Still using pain pills with it. Put it on at five o'clock this evening and here I am up at 2:53 am with pain again.
The good news is he didn't have to go above the knee as far as he thought he would and the inscion looks very good with no seepage of any kind. My prothetist came to the hospital the day after the surgery and put on a shrinker. Now THAT HURT.. He was also pleased with the length and feels I shouldn't have any problems with being fitted with a prothesis. Just wanted to give ya'll a update and now i'm going to try to go back to sleep if the pain lets up. thanks again for all the prayers
