My Gross Knee...With Photos

Six days ago I had arthroscopic knee surgery. I had believed that I would be "up and moving around" (which were the exact words of my doctor) the next day. Well...I was moving. If you call moving around LIMPING badly. 


I went into the doctor today so that I could be reassured that the bruising and swelling was normal. It is. 


I am calling it my gross knee. It looks like someone took a hammer to it.


I will continue to thrift but I will be bringing ice with me in a cooler so when I am between thrifts, I can ice it. That was my hubby's great idea. 


So...here are some photos of my gross knee. Even my thigh is swollen.
