Debbra; Thanks for your input. I had a partial knee replacement and was in pretty good physical shape before surgery. I have spoken with my doctor about my goals and his reply is, "we'll talk in two months." I have high hopes but I am also a realistic person.
Taking a two or three mile walk without pain would improve my life. Maybe that is what I will have to settle for. I still think I can play softball but will have to move to a less active position perhaps. I am elevating, icing, doing my pre PT exercises and after three days I am amazed by the progress I have made. I am using a cane and sometimes forget to use it. The first few steps after sitting or a killer though. Pain meds are down to half level and I will probably stop them tomorrow. All-in-all I would say I am more than happy with my results.

I wish you well and hope to see you on the beach.
