Thank you @herojuana.tom . This procedure was a stopgap for the surgery to come. The pain is less already and I can tell that it was a success. I can walk without too much pain in that knee. It’ll be replaced eventually but not today. lol
Yay!

I’ve been out picking up in the yard this morning. We must have been hit with some intense wind for a while. I have to nail down the tin on the goat shelter but the rest is just branches…

OH yeah. No problems. I won’t be hauling any logs out for a few days though. lol
I need a 4wd tractor!
Thanks @Emeraldgreen . I’m not running any 800’s anytime soon. But I can’t complain. This was the best case scenario.

You should be resting to make sure you recover properly. No lifting beyond 5 pounds for at least a week! Sounds like coffee, weed and playing guitar for you

Glad the procedure helped your pain level in your knee… we need in top fighting for to kick butt in the pound cake challenge. 
Wife dealing with the same problem, she just had a second cortisone shot done, she has to have one more shot then it will most likely be replacement time, she already had one done…

Please have your wife speak to her physician about this procedure. It hurts (I won’t lie) and takes a couple of days for the bruising to heal, but it kept me from having my first knee replacement for at least two years. I had to have it done twice but it helped so much for those two years. I can already tell that I won’t have to have the other one done for now. Possibly in the Fall this year or the next but not today. lol
Radiofrequency Ablation for Pain Management
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) uses heat to destroy tissue. For pain management, radio waves are sent through a precisely placed needle to heat an area of the nerve. This prevents pain signals from being sent back to your brain. RFA is considered for long-term pain conditions, especially of the neck, lower back or arthritic joints that haven’t been successfully treated with other methods.

That’s been about it since I had it done. Today I’m getting around just fine and dandy.

Haven’t really had any storms here… only ~3/4 of an inch of rain maybe. Nothing like the east coast, Oklahoma nor Missouri 
Been doing a lot of sleeping and hospicing a sickly cat lately. SO glad it is finally Friyaay!

They used RF Ablation to burn off some (pre) cancerous places on my esophagus.
I had a condition for several years called Barrett’s Esophagus. Constantly feels like your guts are on fire. Left untreated it will turn into cancer, and then it’s bad news.
