Surgery #2 Scheduled
I did it! I scheduled my next surgery. It's not for a few more months but it's scheduled. I got a little panicked when a nurse at my regular doctors office mentioned that if I didn't get the date set it might not happen when I want it to, which is November. So I called the surgeons office and scheduled it. It wasn't that difficult. I have no idea what I'm going to do about things I "normally" do. Like drive my daughter to school, go to the grocery store, and simply being able to go where I want. I picked November because the tumors are growing and making it harder. If I wait too long it will cause more damage. I'm not completely needing surgery, I could probably go for a while but I can't swim, I have a difficult time going long distances, and my knee locks up often. The popping sound is unnerving. It's not painful mostly but just inconvenient. I have pain mostly in my right foot from trying to not use my right knee. I'm looking forward to the surgery and am making sure to do a yoga practice daily that I had specially tailored just for me and my upcoming surgery. I joined a gym and although I can't swim I can do other exercises in the pool which I prefer. I probably won't go back to the gym for a few months after my surgery so I'm trying to get in good shape before then. It's important for the recovery phase.
