Best wishes on the healing.
Thanks. Actually on the healing side, I can speed the rehab by sticking to a weight lifting schedule (when I'm able of course) and strengthen my quads. I also did this beforehand sorta like a pre-hab.
I also gained weight beforehand 'cause I tend not to eat alot when I'm "sick". Even today, wifey made me a coupla hamburgers, some French fries, and a salad and I barely touched it.
I did my pseudo-Atkins diet as a test before, to see if I could burn off excess weight quickly. I lost about 18 pounds then turned around and gained it back +6. I'm now 206. The weight will also help if I catch infection.
A friend of mine used to be chubby when I younger and then he got sick. He lost so much weight that to this day he's actually skinny.
I planned my surgery around this time 'cause between January and February is when we get our worst snow here. When I tried to schedule my surgery back in November, they tried to give me December 8. I said I wanted Jan. and they said they don't schedule that far in advance and I'd have to call back.
When I called in December, she said that she literally just got the scheduling for January in her hands and I got the date I wanted.:D
They used bioscrews where the material is absorbed by my body. My bone cells grow around the screws leaving basically bone screws. I asked her about those at my pre-op. They were going to use titanium.

Hope you have a great time :01:
I tore my ankle ligaments playing soccer, I'd finished uni and was living in a pub but still doing my professional training. I couldn't walk at all so decided to have a month off from everything that wasn't a larf, I had a fantastic time. Didn't need to take one pain killer due to the plentiful Kronenbourg.
Btw, I nearly pished meself when I was reading the list of stuff you have to hand and then got to the concealed firearm http://www.sighost.us/members/danb/glag.gif

Hey Busyman, hope you get better soon.
I watched the birth of my second child because I had an epidural. Very strange watching my legs being moved about. didn't see much though as they had a screen up. My partner told me that it looked really gory so perhaps just as well....:sicko:
