13. They used the cold machine on my knees for the meniscus removal

But not after the knee replacements. That didn't bother me since my knees hurt less the day after each replacement surgery than they did the day before - that's how bad my knees had gotten.

I took the pain meds in the hospital, while in the rehab hospital, and the day I came home. After that, I never used them again, I just iced the knees and they did great.

I think they used one of those Onque (or whatever it is) machines when I had my hysterectomy up until they took the stitches out. It was definitely more effective than anything else I've had used on me!
