@jmjlove I think the swelling is down a little from yesterday. My daughter kept telling me elevate elevate elevate when she was with me Monday and Tuesday but I wanted to walk walk walk. Here’s the week 1 swelling. Hopefully the left leg will get me through without replacement.

April 17th - Added Week 2 swelling photo. Staples come out tomorrow! Still a lot of tightness in the right leg and have been unable to put on my compression socks for my lymphedema. Got a lot of walking done in the driveway yesterday - 2877 steps and 5 sets of the knee lifts and flexion stretches. I have also been able to work from home this week which is a plus for me. Bummed out today - it's Wednesday and my lunch day at the Old School House Cafe. Love their homemade soups. Hope all is going well for my new TKR friends. Taking it one step at a time ☺

@johnbishop You are coming along nicely. That swelling really does not look very severe at all.
