Sympathies and commiserations Lucy. Keep your leg up, and amke sure you have lots and lots and lots of things to keep you entertained e.g. I had a TV remote, piles of books, magazines and puzzle books etc when I was laid up with knee probs as a teenager. Incidently, if you have a jigsaw puzzle that never seems to be done - now is the time to do it. Have a makeshift nest where you intend to be all day too - plenty of cushions blankets etc - treat yourself as though you were queen. (I'd recommend a little tinkling bell too, but it might make the dog a bit potty). I found that the elbow crutches were easier for me than the wooden underarm ones - I think it probably is personal preference. Nice idea with the computer chair! I send you wishes for a speedy recovery. Nicci
