Feel for you Woody :-$

I am 8 weeks into my no driving, originally told a minimum of 13 weeks but now having real problems with it :evil: I'm due to see my consultant tomorrow, in the last two weeks i've had an infection and once that cleared I have decended into extreme pain that the painkillers aren't touching.  hope that he has some ideas tomorrow [-o<

woody:

Well its good news that you are doing well! Bit of a bum about driving but you will get there!

Since my last post on the 29th April I saw my consultant on the 30th and was admitted that afternoon!! I was operated on around 11pm that night to try and clear out the infection. I was then kept in for 4 weeks and operated on a further 4 times to clear this infection!! I HATE hospitals!!

Since then however things have gone quite well, i'm attending physio 3 times a week and have been allowed to drive since the 1st July. I'm now walking without any knee brace at all which is a first for over 4 and a half years! but I do still need a stick for stability until I get my muscle tone back, then its just a series of bone grafts to stabilise the bone itself in 12 to 18 months.

Good luck with the recovery, you will get there!
