I am blessed. I got a call late last week that my knee surgery had been moved from 6/24 to tomorrow 5/27. Just before Covid 19 hit, I had found out that part my knee was bone on bone. This threw walking out of kilter making both legs and hips ache. I know others are also waiting for surgery. This has been a trying time for all. Am praying that you will find comfort and be able to get the medical that you need. I don't know about other hospitals, but mine required a Covid 19 test 72 hours before surgery. If you haven't had one, be prepared. It isn't horrible, but is mighty uncomfortable. They insert a swab into a nostril until it practically hits the throat and sets off a massive coughing fit. It only takes a few seconds, but feels like forever. Thanking God that isolation has worked and my test was negative. Continue to stay safe and healthy everyone.

Glad that you had a negative test. I bet it was uncomfortable but necessary. I pray that the operation will give you the relief you need. Be good and do all the instructions given and soon you will do the jig 😊😊

Thank God your test is negative and you can go ahead with your knee surgery. A bit of advice from one that has had a total knee replacement. Physical therapy is a MUST along with Rest,and Ice, God bless for a quick recovery.
