040912 - 2. Thank you for the newsy e-mail, always interesting to hear what
040913 - "happenings" there are [...Robin responds to letter on 120617

040918 - 3. My knee is worse and when I saw my chiro, Dr. Baird yesterday
040919 - he said I could benefit from physical therapy and that I should
040920 - have had it right after surgery. Too, he said a surgery like I
040921 - had, his opinion is that I should have had physical therapy to
040922 - rehabilitate the whole knee. He, Dr.Baird said that when you
040923 - have something like I had done, it is invasive and requires the
040924 - whole knee to have therapy to completely recover.
040926 - ..
040927 - Robin called several weeks ago and complained of complications from
040928 - knee surgery 3 months after knee surgery on 120322; at that time,

040930 - years ago, reported on 120528 0913. ref SDS 11 MT8H

040961 - 4. Dr.Baird said he could order it but my insurance may not cover
040962 - it, to check first. Anyway, I checked and my insurance doesn't
040963 - cover it if a chiro prescribes so today I called Dr.Lawler's
040964 - office (who did my surgery) and said I wanted physical therapy.
040965 - They gave me names and p can start. Truly, my knee pain goes
040966 - all the way up and down my leg, up my derriere. I don't do a
040967 - lot of activity, haven't gone back to the gym because any
040968 - length of time on my feet, my knee swells and is more painful.
040970 - ..
040971 - On 120601 Robin reported the surgeon advised that her recovery from

041000 - 5. I really don't want or feel like doing anything, have gained
041001 - weight too because I do very little. I did plan the weekend of
041002 - the 30th with Terra as I had mentioned, then I have my
041003 - Convention in Bakersfield in July but other than that I don't
041004 - want to go anywhere or plan anything until my knee feels
041005 - better. I'm not in the mindset really to want to go anywhere
041006 - right now but hope that I can start PT Monday. I won't be able
041007 - to go tomorrow, have a chiro appt, Thurs is meeting, Fri
041008 - several of my co-workers, myself included are getting together
041009 - at a local restaurant as Terra's "going away" party.

041025 - 6. I don't mention to many people about my knee/neck, don't like
041026 - to complain but this is where I am right now. I believe it
041027 - will get better and only wish I had had PT right after surgery.
041028 - I never realized how what seemed to be minor has really set me
041029 - back, activity wise and I'm so behind on things I had wanted to
041030 - do, get done. I've neglected so many things and all of this
041031 - has affected my mood, feel blue a lot to the time. BTW, Dr.
041032 - Baird said it would have been "minor", if I had had a splinter
041033 - taken out, that whenever you have a surgical procedure there
041034 - are steps that need to be taken to recover successfully. Dr.
041035 - Baird is such a sympathetic person :)
