I hope you all are well and enjoying your day. I am laying low today. I fell again yesterday, and am incredibly sore. Greg is home and helping me get around, and I am using ice to get down the swelling.
I went to see the orthopedic surgeon on thursday. His exact words about my knees were "they're pretty much terminal." Wierd words to tell me they are completely shot. I knew that already. But he said he is worried about my circulatory issues causing blood clots and /or excessive bleeding. He also wants me to have therapy for the lymphedema first, and also wants to have a release from my cardiologist saying I can handle the knee replacement surgeries. Yeah, like that's gonna happen.......
So, I don't know what I can do at this point. Not good news I know, but that's where I'm at right now. Looks like I will have to look into a power chair so I can get around without having to keep falling on my face........ Ugh.......Prayers at this point would be welcomed. That's all for today friends. Love & hugs. XOXOXOXOX Marlene
Sometimes, changes are a good thing!!!
