You should have just replaced it yourself! It probably would've been a much better job!

Are you sure the titanium plate is properly grounded to your heel? It could be building up an induced voltage and causing HLLE on your kneecap.I just came back from the Knee guy and it seems only 1 or 2% of his patients get this. Guess which percent I am?
He said it is rare and I got a bad case of it. Thats Great!!!.
I wanted to be in the One percent with this.
It seems that a ligament that runs along side your knee is rubbing up against the titanium implant and it doesn't like it so it is irritated. So am I.
Now I have to take this heavy duty steroid and one of the side effects is Knee pain. You can't make this stuff up.
Then I have to go for knee injections. I thought the reason for getting a knee replacement was so you don't have to get any more knee injections.
But I guess this time the needle is filled with WD-40.
You shouldn't have been in home depot shopping for nose rings. Lowe's has nicer ones.
Gawd, Somebody please photoshop a nose ring on your face. [emoji57]
And an I [emoji173] NY on your bicep. [emoji3]
WD40 is supposedly made with fish oil, so you will be immune from ich.

I do hope that this is a temporary setback and that it resolves itself before too long.
I thought so too, but unfortunately, that is a myth.
You could ground it to your ball and chain failing that a metal lamp post. In the care just run an earth wire to your cars earth. Sorted [emoji6]I know it's grounded because the grounding wire is sticking out between my toes and I have it connected to a water pipe. It's a little cumbersome, but it's a long wire.
I was going to ground it to my nose ring but I already have a lightning rod attached to that.
Which part is a myth? Ich immunity?
Oh and we have cotton mouth snakes also. I wonder if my blenny could take out a Cotton Mouth?
Aw Paul that suck! I hope this works. Does it feel better yet? I read you were volunteering and man I was I impressed. Is he gonna send you to PT? Only some very gifted PT can help with that kinda stuff. Seriously, have you looked at rolling? Or taping? There are quite a few videos out there on this stuff, but not a lot of doctors orthos included believe in the benefits of this stuff but my favorite PT (physical therapist) is a master of muscle issues that cause joint issues and he is just AMAZING! Art usual says knee problems are hip muscle problems and fixed many folks I send to him. Please ask to see a physical therapist.I just came back from the Knee guy and it seems only 1 or 2% of his patients get this. Guess which percent I am?

PT stand for physical therapist? All these years and here I thought it stood for Professional Torturer.my favorite PT (physical therapist) is a master of muscle issues that cause joint issues and he is just AMAZING
I remember in Viet Nam I once shot a python which must have been 30' long. He wanted to sleep in my bunker with me and I didn't think it would be prudent at that time. A Red Neck we had there took the head of this thing and carried it around for about a month because he wanted the skull. I made him get rid of it because of the stink.
Another time I shot a cobra. Him and me disagreed on where he should live and I won. First I shot him with my 45 but that just made him mad so I had to shoot him a few more times with my M-16. If that didn't work, I had a case of grenades and a howitzer.
I have a picture of the python someplace I think.
I don't believe in senselessly killing an animal, but if you like those things, buy a 12' cobra and cuddle up to it in bed.
Speaking of, how is the wife doing? The homemade special blend still helping?We were looking for an vintage factory window for my wife's bathroom and we just received it.
Paul, put that nasty thing down. No, do not try putting that ba...Gimme that! Snatches a nasty old yucky rotten bone out of Paul’s hand.Victoria, I went to PT for about 5 weeks, the Dr. said I didn't need it any longer. Then the knee got worse. (not as bad as what you got of course as that's terrible and I am so glad you are getting better)
My knee problem is a consequence of surgery and I doubt PT will help. He says the ligament is rubbing on the titanium and scar tissue has to form. I think he is wrong as the pain is on the other side of the knee but what do I know? I also didn't know titanium could get scar tissue. He also said I got tendonitis which kicks in 5 weeks after surgery.
I am taking steroids and my muscles are not getting any bigger, just my nose hairs. In a couple of weeks he wants to inject me with cortisone. I guess he will use a needle that can penetrate titanium.
The reason I got the knee was to stop getting cortisone shots in my knee, which by the way are not real pleasurable in the first place.
Today I am going dumpster diving in back of the hospital to see if I can find my old knee.
