Yes, what she said! ^_^

GUESS WHAT I'm already okay on just Panadol and it doesn't really hurt when I'm not standing on it!!

Thank you! Fortunately it seems pretty routine - apparently my problem is the "most common cause of knee pain for people under 35".

... Good thoughts sent your way. Hot damn. It's been a year, two years now for you? Damn. Hope you get good pettings out of it at least and that it won't mess up your trip.

Just under a year and a half since I broke my ankle, though this knee has been a bit dodgy a little longer than that.

Although he still says it's a good idea to take a walking stick, the surgeon is of the view that I should be distinctly better-than-now for the trip. I'm not having the version of the procedure that involves cutting bone, which helps.

And is a relief, because part of me is just, BUT I ONLY JUST FIXED THOSE BONES LEAVE THEM ALONE...

♥ Good thoughts back at you. Just 'cause.

Thank you. I will be sure to make SO I DIDN'T DIE OF KNEE EXPLOSIONS updates later in the week. (That's totally a thing now, I just decided.)

Assuming the dw reply by email feature works, I can reply to say that it largely went quite well indeed. When not putting weight on it my knee already hurts less than it did before. I've only had paracetamol today and I'm fine.

And I even got to walk back from the bathroom unsupervised this morning!
