Expecting tomorrow to be fitted for a post-op brace and to have a CPM (Constant Passive Motion) device dropped off. The medical tech who called to schedule the drop off said that most people use the machine for a week to 10 days or so. I have a lot of uncertainty about my immediate post-op condition, like the amount of swelling to expect and so on.
Just heard from my doctor that an Aircast Cryo/Cuff, will be provided for post-surgical cryotherapy, which is a good thing. I was thinking I'd have to get my own. Definitely something you want to have:
Otherwise, I'm starting to let people know at work that I'll be out next week. I'm a little nervous not having ever had general anesthesia before, or surgery really, of any kind. The Fallon system is so full of complete idiots that I feel like I have to be super-proactive. Keep hope alive! I will survive!

This device was really helpful, and I can't recommend it enough. Since my own recovery, I've loaned this out to a lot of people recovering from a wide variety of knee surgeries, injuries, etc.
This is a must-have!
