@sabine66 I don't know what kind of surgery you had, but I am post-op from my June 9th back fusion from T-10 to my pelvis. I just got off of pain pills like my surgeon wanted me too. I can understand that Patience is not your strong suit, it's not mine either. I am suppose to do short walk several times a day, but I can't know. I kept noticing that my right foot was shorter that the left. The surgeon suggested a shoe lift. One I get it I will get back to walking. My right knee hurts and I keep on having spasms in my right foot, which I never had before.
Take care of yourself, I know it's not easy. I'm still weak in my legs too.

I had a mastectomy with axillary dissection back in April, with resulted in developing Lymphedema in my left arm and shoulder pain which I now know is from a ligament tear in my shoulder which occurred during surgery, two weeks ago I had reconstruction with fat crafting. This was suppose to be the easier surgery, however seems like I am harder time recovering. I can’t tolerate pain medication so habe been using kinesiology taping and manual lymph drainage massages to control swelling. I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing muscle spasms after surgery and pain in your knee, hope you will get answers and help with the pain You are experiencing.
