So I went to see the physio today. She told me that there are requirements I need to meet in order to go to that operation:
- my knee must go straight
- my knee must bend at least 90 degrees, preferably upto 110 degrees
We tried how it went today and I got it 10 degrees from going straight and upto 82 degrees bent. After a couple of excercises, I managed to get my knee to 5 degrees from straight and 90 degrees bent. So there’s some work to do…
I will have my control with the physio in two weeks. The operation is reserved for me so if all goes well, I will have my knee ready for surgery in two weeks. And taking the delay, I might have a surgery before Christmas. Which would leave me at least 5 weeks to recover. This being the worst case scenario again 
According to the physio, after the surgery I would be required to see the doctor 3 weeks after the surgery and then 6 weeks after. So approximately every 3 weeks. I would be using the crutches for at least 3 weeks. Then shitloads of physiothreapy to get my knee function properly. So, basically it means that if I don’t have my surgery before Christmas, I might have to cancel my exchange as well.
But, me being the optimistic I’m hoping to have my knee ready for next time. Then 1-4 weeks until surgery. Then 6 weeks until all control checks are over. I’d be ready in early January - late January. Just in time for my early February exchange
So get your thumbs up and hope for the best!
