Just saw this thread. Wow. And I thought I was going through some rough times. Prayers for you Roy, both for what you're going through and for losing your wife. Crazy that this happened a year-and-a-half after the operation. Is there any period after hip/knee replacement surgery where you can actually feel safe from infection not happening? 5 years? 10 years? Or is it a potential ticking time bomb for the rest of a person's life? Hang in there man, sounds like you're one tough dude. |

OK, WHEN DOES THIS MADNESS COME TO AN END? HERE WE FREAKING GO AGAIN, ANOTHER INFECTION! The 6 months on antibiotics failed! Hey gang, been in the hospital ( again ) for a week now, trying again to conquer this infection. So here we are, out goes the left knee now, I'm officially Captain Pegleg. Yep, I now have 2 stiff legs with no knees for separation. Having to learn how to get up on my feet, walk ( if possible ) with balance, basically having to live the next 6 weeks in bed. After that if all infection is gone, we can try to replace a knee. So back to 1 day at a time, taking a daily IV. |
