10 hours til go time 👀

This time tomorrow I should be in the exact same bed, writing another entry for the blog but with a very different left knee! Everything is prepped and ready to go, a last minute delivery of a cryo-cuff arrived today... vital bit of kit to keep the swelling down. Due in hospital at 7am.... assuming the Op will be at some point during the morning and I'll be home by late afternoon. As for pre-hab before the surgery.. I think the general consensus is it's definitely advisable to be going into the operation in decent physical condition if you want the rehab to go 'easier' Personally having lived with this injury for basically 2 years, I have gone through the atrophy associated with the initial injury and built myself up to 100% again over that duration. Unfortunately I am still lacking the ability to do pivoting and cutting sports, which is the primary reason for getting it done. 😁 Hopefully I'm not in too much pain tomorrow and I ping another entry up ✌
