How to get through knee surgeries and injuries

[@lmeasterwood]

I agree with you on the second one. It's not much more in length than the first.

[@lovealwaysrosie14]

I also think the second one is better. Thank you so much for this! Iloveyou!

[@centaurora913]

This was so helpful, thanks! I'm day 3 post-surgery for an mpfl reconstruction and I've been wondering about some of these things myself but I couldn't find any solutions online, especially about the leg rest part. These are definitely important things to know for knee surgeries. Thank you!!

[@franlats0705]

I like the 2nd version, I also love that Jaquie is there, it's still very odd to think she is no longer with us. I keep expecting her videos

[@egoddess76]

I love the second one! Thanks for the tips, I actually wash my hands and brush my teeth the same way. I’m 6 days out from surgery. This cheered me up, I’ve really been struggling with my bending exercises. They are so painful and it feels like it will never get better

[@MeetingAllofMe]

I had a very similar surgery 9 years ago, had complains and had to have 5 more knee surgeries since then. I was in a straight leg splint for 6 months, non weight bearing. Wish we knew some of these tricks back then, particularly having a cart on wheels. The other thing we learned after our 2nd operation was making sure to touch the bottom of the foot with different materials, texture, etc. This was because after non weight bearing for so long, when I started weight bearing again, my foot got quite painful due to low touch stimulation. Also, love both intros, don't think I could pick which one I like best.

I like version 2 better. Thanks for popping in tonight Izzy! It’s nice to see a friendly face when your EDS is making you ache all over at nearly 2am (London time) xxxxxxxxxxxx

[@IzzyKDNA]

ugh sorry to hear that :( i hope you have a lower pain day tomorrow

[@susanlevine779]

I like the second one better. I love that you included Jaquie. I really miss her even though I didn't know her personally. I'm glad you had a chance to get together before she passed. You look great in this vlog. It seems like you have a great attitude regarding your recovery. Are you in physical rehabilitation now? I would be interested to know how that aspect of your recovery is going.

[@IzzyKDNA]

I'm doing physical therapy, twice a week starting this week! I'll make an update video soon on how it goes

[@MsLizzy2010]

Thank you for doing this video! I am going in for knee surgery in a while.

[@brittmjurado]

I like the second version better!

[@samil.5082]

I like the first one more as an intro and the second one I think would work great as an outro, since it’s longer.

[@joanneduval5532]

I’m late answering this one but I like the second one with Jacquie and the kitty 🤗

[@constancafidelis4839]

I prefer the first one just because it catches more my attention 😅

[@katkaplan3]

I think version 2..... I think it still could use a little work tho, maybe add in a few things from your original intro... idk just my thoughts.. was totally going to mention and electric razor- they make women’s too. Yeah it’s not quite as close a shave, but for cutting myself numerous times, I’ve switched to one.

[@IzzyKDNA]

i actually was thinking of changing up some of the intro visuals!! i don't love all of them..

[@larachatman418]

This timing is perfect I’m having MPFL/TTO surgery tomorrow!

[@IzzyKDNA]

GOOD LUCK!!!!

[@iseultlaw7702]

I have to say, I prefer the first one actually, I just think it's snappyer

[@toshaestermyer8381]

I liked the second song. Not that this matters anymore. It’s been 5 years for you lol

[@eduardopadilla5505]

both are very good!

[@TheBeanie2k]

I honestly like either intro. To me the 2nd one really doesn't seem any longer than the 1st. But will say I do like seeing the kitty in the second intro. But then I'm an animal lover. But love your tips you gave. thank you..

[@Astroatlas03]

I like both!

[@susanswanson7757]

I like the second one😀

[@olgagnatyuk2441]

I like the 1st one

[@poetjames]

I like version 2! 👍🏻

[@judyferguson1488]

I like the second one too :)

[@mandi4886]

Both of the intros are cute, but I really like the 1st one :)

[@rhondarodriguez1690]

I like the 2nd version 😊

[@rachellewells3025]

The second one. Also do you have Orthostatic hypotension? I thought I heard you say that once but I can't remember.

[@kostak6327]

I like the 1st version but if u like the 2nd one u can break it into 2 parts like play the 1st part when the video starts, then say a short 1 or 2 sentence summary of what the video will be about, then play the 2nd part and contunue the video

[@johnspillman5403]

I have great deal of advice if you wish me share with you on knee recovery , when i was 19yrs snapped all my TCLs and at 23yrs split completely my inner cartilage(a call a bucket handle split of lateral menisus , a so I had the op to completely remove all the inner cartilage, I have H/EDS by the way , I had three knee replacements and 4 revision all the left knee .so I have a lot experience in recovery .

[@breanachavezart9636]

i like the second one! (: and its not to much longer!

[@ConestogaCreek]

I like the 1st better so go wth that

[@chadbivona3572]

I like 2nd Version!

[@rachelg.4892]

I personally like the second intro better!

[@Dooder_Noodle]

I like the 2nd one

[@summershymanski6901]

Just saw in ur intro your stretching of ur skin and im like "yessss another zebra in the houseee" 😂😂 getting my mpfl reconstruction tomorrow am and was hoping to hesr some tips from someone else with eds

[@IzzyKDNA]

it'll totally be ok!! recovery is not fun but youll make it through. start some new tv shows and movies and make sure u have people to keep you company! you've got this!

[@taras8955]

I prefer the first one as an intro and maybe the second one as an outro?

[@adamguymon7096]

I think that both versions are nice but I will say that I would keep the shorter version and maybe take the other half of the long version and recreated a little bit for the ending of your videos so it will have a little bit of a Different Twist but it will still I have the entire thing but it'll be split up. I did like the first part because it should both of you and Jaquie and that is cool. If you took the last half of the long version in this bed a couple changes to the music you could use that is the ending of the videos and that way someone who is legally blind or can't see at all will still be able to determine the beginning and the end of your videos. Thank you and I hope you have a great day.

[@bibble48]

I like the second one more

[@annettepriola4061]

Hi Izzy! My daughter just had this surgery I feel so lost because it’s been 2 weeks and she is still in a lot of pain 🥲I don’t think the Oxycodone can be refilled.. when did your pain subside? It’s been so hard 🙏🏼what can we do? I have called for a Dr appointment but they can’t see us until Monday 😢any advice is appreciated, love from Alabama ❤️

[@michellebull9184]

I like the second one. It maybe needs a little more editing, and adding. Maybe a clip of Charlie Buckets.... everyone loves animals! Also, the original intro music was a bit more upbeat and catchy. I hope this helps. Also, side note when I broke my ankle and leg I loved an epilator for “shaving”. If you can take the pain it is nice to get a really smooth leg and you can do it in bed! Start off in a small patch and work your way up to more surface area if you haven’t done it before. 😊💕

[@IzzyKDNA]

yeah i agree that it needs more editing and some changing!! but that'd be the general idea with a few changes :)

[@VulcanOnWheels]

1:39 I don't think that washing your hands after you go to the bathroom makes you a germofobe. 10:33 There is a way to put a poll on your videos. Anyway, I prefer the short version.

[@MillsSkits]

I think either intro. is fine, and you should use the one you want to use! :) Viewers can skip the intro. if they don't want to watch it.

[@kimbamford5019]

I like the 2nd version better.

[@RollingThunderDJs]

Second version is better. The first one is too short.

[@taliakirsten1143]

FIRST!!!! I haven't even watched it yet but still lol

[@annikawimmer950]

2

[@noneofyourbusiness5091]

[@loriray3680]
