OK - so nix the block heater and instead toss in a couple of cans of STP to thicken things up a bit.Well, needless to say, the left leg does not quite bend well yet. But the biggest deal is they have my blood at about the consistency of rubbing alcohol so a pin prick bleeds profusely. If I hit my head, I'm supposed to go straight to the emergency room to check for internal bleeding. So I'm probably out of the saddle for a little while as they fiddle with my chemicals to get it sorted to the right 'level'. If they'd just put in some full synthetic, I'm sure I'd be fine ...
Just be careful when gritting your teeth, or you'll be spending time at the dentists!Well, I got the staples out today. The lower ones were okay but as they got closer to the knee it was a bit exciting.
The nurse said 'I must not be hurting, you're not hollering.'
My response - 'Only because I'm gritting my teeth ....' ;-)
Still a lot of swelling in the lower ankle and foot, but at least I can see my knee cap now!
What ST4Sal said....UP Glad to hear you are recovering and remember "Chicks Dig Scars"..
