My knee pain got out of control enough that my sweetheart had to take me in. Ugh! They changed my pain med once again, took exrays and gave me a shot and a new knee brace. Not my best day. The pain is not gone today, but is better. I dont get to see the orthopedic surgeon until dec. 11th. I already know i am headed for a total knee replacement. Not looking forward to that. I had my left knee replaced 5 years ago so i know what to expect. Trying not to be a big baby but i hate being stuck sitting with my leg stiff and elevated. Geez..got stuff to do!

So sorry to hear you're having knee problems, Aunt Jenny. If your replaced knee has freed you from pain, I guess we're lucky you can sign up for a few new parts as needed because you have some serious glampin' and trampin' to do with that new honey of yours!

So sorry, Jenny, that your knee is causing you so much pain, and you will have to have the knee replacement.

It's okay to reach out to people who love you for support - ALWAYS! I'm so sorry you're going through this, but I do know if anyone is going to be able to cheer you up and help see you through all of this, it's your farmgirl sisters! We're here for you! We're here for you! And I will be praying for you, too! Hugs - Nini

Sorry to hear about your knee, Aunt Jenny! Painful joints are so hard to deal with because we use them everyday as we move around. I hope your Dec. 11 appointment will bring a plan forward that will give you some peace of mind. In the meantime, I guess you will have to baby the knee and get caught up on some sitting projects. Take care and I hope your knee will feel better after yesterday's treatment.

Thanks so much gals. My knee is feeling a little better. I am babying it all i can. The knee imobilizer brace thing helps alot but really is hard to ride in the car or sit without my foot up. I have all sorts of nicknames for the way i walk in it too. Haha,. Oh well. Doing all the sitting projects i can when it hurts most and getting things done in between. We have grandbabies coming for a week so i need to rest it up before they get here! It just started to rain so it is the perfect indoor day!
