Thread: Hunting with a knee injury

After knee one replacement,hospital and surgeon gave me tramadol?for pain killers when i got home.Never worked i had to sleep in a easyboy chair for 3 nights,the pain sent me thru the roof sometimes.Got sent down a few pkts of Brufen sr 800.Took 2 in the morning,2 in the evening for a few weeks.Sleeped all night every night,best pain killers ever i reckon.With knee replacements,get walking asap,up down stairs,week later,few 100mtrs walks,then increase.6 weeks later i walked 8 ks down a river bed to get help.My truck got a flat battery.
After knee replacements,DONT sit around for months waiting for them to heal,they will just about seize up and make it very hard for you to walk at all.
I didnt have health insurance and i wasnt waitn 3 or 4 yrs for surgery.So i payed for them which didnt please the misses much.About 20k each over 18months between knee ops.Oh well some people spend 40k on hunting trucks,i better keep mind another 10 yrs and look after my 8k joints.Knees been going well after 5 yrs now.
