Re: Don's Manipulation and scar tissue cleanup More INFO

[Guest guest]

Hey Don!

Congrats on the great recovery! I too ended up having a manipulation

after I had a patellar/femural replacement last April. I had my

manipulation in June...however my ortho home nurse knew I was getting

behind on rehab 2 weeks in. I just plain couldn't move my knee.

I had the benefit on knowing going in that I scar thickly and that

would be a concern. I described my manipulation as " putting me out so

they could bend the !@#$ out of my knee while I'm not awake to kill

them " ! I'm sorry they had to " open you up " again...but I'll pray it

will all work out well in the end!

Keep up the great bending...and work at it. I've lost ground again

since being booted out of rehab...

Hey Don, this is better news!!!!

What a great surface coating your OS has left for your implant!!

This is the exciting thing about the carticel option - where you have

the real chance to get back your original smooth cartilage surface that

continues to grow and harden over the next 12 - 18 months and then you

get your life back again.

Its a big call investing in all the recovery/ rehab time (and pain

management) but its great to see another win for the technology!!

Well done sir!
