crabby Kat's Journal, 26 October 2014

My total knee replacement of my right knee is scheduled for November 24. Upheaval continues. I'm getting things done, but pain is messing things up. I did Pilates and Zumba this morning, but I had to leave 48 minutes into Zumba after my knee slipped and ground me into pain. I've learned that if I ignore the pain and continue to dance, it will really catch up with me later.

The X-ray of my knee is pretty impressive, with all the bone spurs and lack of cartilage. It's definitely time to get this done.

I'm going to settle down, work on my list of preparations, do my exercises, and try to eat right. I'll prepare meals for after surgery & freeze them, as well as healthy treats.

I must go do some stretches and icing; the story of my life at this time. It helps to know that you're all here, even if I'm not checking in with you. Hope you're doing well...

So glad you are going to go ahead with the surgery - it is a pain to be sidelined but you will probably get big relief in the end. How is your partner doing after her back surgery? Hope all is well for you two.

I was thinking about you and your knee Saturday on my bike - telling myself 'if Kitkat can muscle thru the pain to Zumba, you can spin that wheel another 1/2 hour... get peddling'.
