Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 i will be thinking of you tomorrow with good thoughts of a smooth surgery and a uneventfull recovery take care and try and get some rest tonight amber Surgery Tomorrow I'm just over 24 hours away from surgery. So far, everything has been going as planned. I got my place clean and ready for my mom to arrive and sleep at before she comes down to be with me after my surgery (she is flying in from the Philippines on Friday). On Sunday night, I had my " Last Supper " at The Olive Garden, where I had the Manicotti Formaggio. Yesterday, my sister and I had an uneventful trip down to Delano. The only hiccup has been with the modem in my laptop. When I first got my laptop, I formatted the hard drive and did a fresh installation of the operating system and installed drivers for all the built-in devices... mostly from off a CD. Since I couldn't seem to find out how to get it to work, I decided to uninstall the modem and then re-install it... apparently, I didn't have the files needed to re-install it. It was asking for a file that didn't exist on my hard drive. I needed to get online, in order to get online. I tried calling around to see if anywhere in Delano provided public Internet access via either a wired Ethernet or wireless connection... no such luck. I ended up driving down to Bakersfield where I could get online at Kinko's... which at least was free. I was able to download the proper file and install the driver. It still took a little more work to get online via the slow modem, but at least I was able to do it. In a couple hours, I'll be meeting with Dee and sometime today meet with Dr. K. I'll see some of you tonight at the meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 I read the abstract but I still don't understand, since -ectomy means " removal of " . I don't see how they can remove the synovium, since it holds the synovial fluid inside the knee. If anyone knows what they actually do during a synovectomy, please let us know.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 good luck amber, i had a scope and scrape on the L knee in 2004 with Dr. P. Fulkerson (yes, he's the guy who invented the surgery) and it took a LONG time to heal. I felt so raw for about a year, (i could still walk fine though it hurt) but im glad i did it cause my L knee feels so much better than the R (im going to get the R done next year for financial reasons.) take care, Farah --- Amber <al_19_1999@...> wrote: > Tomorrow I am to have surgery to smooth out my soft > carilage and then > the OS is going to a lateral release.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 wanted to give you guys the DL (down low) on the Cialis.. (yes i am a woman, and it has no benefits, I.E. " side effects " for women) i started by taking the 36 hour one , taking it along with my bentyl and also donatal..it did lower my already low blood pressure but not too badly (under my Doctors supervision-Dear Husband) then i took a low dosage Cialis like the 5mg - one 2x a day.. morning and evening.. Now what you have to know is that before that i was taking 2 bags (large bags) of saline IV every week because i could not even drink--muchless eat. this really really helped! the LES opened up and i was able to eat several things this past weekend and week. and DRINK! wow! it made a huge difference.Piggy Sister really got to eat! i then ran out of the cialis samples so i went to viagra a couple days, that did good too. i was able to not even worry about having my spit cup with me on the veranda.. wow. that was huge.. but i am having a myotomy tomorrow morning. so i will let you know how that goes. SOOOOOO.. for the record, for me, the cialas and viagra worked very well. and considering how far i was coming from-- absolutely NOTHING going down, it really helped.
