I couldn't agree enough too, hearing from Bricktop makes me realize I take a lot of things for granted.

I'm recovering slowly.



And I'm now walking unaided, which I'm really pleased and amazed about.



These tribulations shall pass.

You're walking already......good for you Bricktop.

Can you ice it do anything to control the pain Bricktop?


Painkillers and ice packs are essential.



Oh, and by the way...I NOW HAVE COVID!!!!

When it rains it pours. I hope you get over it fast. I will be honest, I had a few really bad days when I had COVID.

They are about the same as a heavy flu. Not a lot of fun.

That would be hard to deal with. Does it prevent you from sleeping or do the drugs put you to sleep?


I've just started getting a reasonable nights sleep without the heavy duty painkillers they prescribe. I've been on them for a month and need to get off them ASAP. I'm on "over the counter" painkillers now and they seem to be effective enough.



This has probably been the toughest month of my life.



But things are improving well now and all should turn out OK.

That's wonderful news.

You bet.



The unceasing pain and discomfort is the worst part.



It's the soft tissue around the joint that is the most painful.

The exercises are done seated or prone.



But I am walking now with a stick. You have to get them working asap after the surgery or run the risk of having them seize up and needing replacement.

Not to mention the road maintenance and traffic jams, high property tax, rat race to work is something I'd never miss, lol.

How long is your commute each way to your shop Zetsu?


It takes about 20 minutes, which is so much better than my brother's 2 hour drive from his home in Hong Kong to the factory in Shenzhen everyday.  :laugh:
