One More Orthopedic Visit and I SHOULD be Done for a Few Years!

I am pysched though. Got my stitches out with only a lil trouble with the one that kept crusting over. Sooooooooo glad I took a loafa sponge to that stitch this morning to get it loose! The doctor came in bent my knee every which way, got the low down of what happened after surgery with it, and we discussed his uppity nurse and issues I had.

Doc Samulson was NOT happy when he heard that my surgery was switched from the Hospital Surgery Center to the New Surgery Center across the street WITHOUT my okay. Nor was he happy that Peg gave me hell for cxling the appointment I did NOT remember agreeing too even if I did and attempted to chew my ass out. He goes that explains why she passed off your chart to the younger nurse. I said yep cause she didn't want to be in here when I was laying it out to you about her behavor. She may be just fine with the older crowd of paitents but she isn't going to pull that crap with me. I reminded him he wasn't affiliated with any of the Clinics or Hospitals in the area and I could easily move my knee issues back to my highschool knee surgeran even if I do NOT like his new facility and how it is in SD and away from all the hospitals. And if I move my care over there so does my dad and so does my uncle (he is having knee surgery this month from via a different doc in same office) and he would loose a potintal paitent with my hubby's shoulder. He apologized and said he will discuss Peg's behavor and she will NO LONGER be my nurse when I go. Get uppity with me we will have issues. I don't buy into I am a Nurse therefore I must know more than you bullcrap. Kiss my ass! My mom's a RN, my sister's an RN, I have multiple cousins that are nurses, paramedics, doctors, PA's, and physical therapist NOT to mention Vet's and Vet techs.

Anyway I got clearance to hit the gym but no reistant weights on my legs-I am to use free weights where I can control the actual weight on that knee. And I can go back to taekwondo with walk throughs and pivots but no jump kicking as of yet. And I go back in a month to get final clearance and discuss periodic care of my knees as I get older.

Yay me! Starting next week every morning I am hitting the gym after I drop the kids off-barring any other appointments!
