Sorry i have missed a lot , but have been very down for a while due to my knee ,and family stuff thats made me feel as if i have been stabed in the back causing a lot of stress and heart break , but hay-ho the person involved has lost more than the rest of us , on the Knee issue the physio is going to write to the consultant as things are not as right as they should be , he is very happy with my commitment and effort but i get so much swelling after very little effort and still pain 24/7 that does not get dulled down with pain relief , i know it was only a 50/50 op but i had hoped for better , i wonder what will be offered next :?
I know i am a lady ,all life is a journey xx MAY xx

    Hi May,

    I am so sorry its all got to you. Not surprised though cus we all can only take so much before falling into being down. I really hope its ease on the family front now and the knee.... tis still early days i orthopedic terms so it might get a lot better yet.

    Maybe you need a drug review if the pain is so constant? Talk to them May and see if they can help with the pain more.

    Hang in there my friend. Love and a ton of ((((( ))))) as well as a shoulder if you need one. Cris xxx
