Day 7

It's been a week now, and I still couldn't find a comfortable position in which to sleep.  This makes me wake up several times each night, and then finally get up feeling groggy.

The swelling seems to have gone down overnight.  Flexion has less pressure at 90 degrees, and I can go about 5-10 degrees more than that without considerable discomfort from the swelling.  Most of the swelling is above the knee joint, though I can feel some laterally.

My calves on both legs are sore, I imagine they have been doing the bulk of the load bearing over the last week.

In small spaces like the bathroom and kitchen, in which a counter is only a few shuffle-steps away, I am able to work without both crutches.  My left leg, which is been doing nearly all the load bearing recently, makes a squishy noise when I bend it.  It's not painful, but not something I've had forever.  I'm hoping this is simply overcompensation.
