Greg,
Sorry to hear that things still haven’t improved. My surgeon warned me before the catheter removal that it was a possibility that I wouldn’t be able to go. She said it usually doesn’t happen, but certainly can. I asked what’s done about it, and she said they replace the catheter and usually just wait until everything comes back. Pretty much exactly what they’ve done with you. I’m glad they’re running tests too, for peace of mind if nothing else.
Do you remember how long your swelling lasted? I’m on post-op day 4, and it’s rather bothersome to walk any distance.
