Day 2
It’s day 2 of my ACL adventure (I debated whether to call this day 1 or day 2, since it’s technically day 1 of recovery, but I ultimately decided I didn’t want to call the surgery day… day 0). I slept on the couch downstairs last night, and I still haven’t been upstairs since I’ve gotten home. I’m not sure when I’ll be able to do that, since stairs can be pretty tricky to navigate. I had a little bit more pain through the night, but have continued to take 1 Loritab pill about every 4 hours. The pain is still quite bearable, and I can even flex my quad muscles a little bit.
I’m getting a lot better at getting off the couch and moving around using the crutches. I have an appointment with the doctor at 3:15 this afternoon, so I’ll really get a chance to move around a good bit again for that. I’m hoping I won’t get sick in the car this time. I’m anxious to hear what all the doctor has to say today.
