Ah.  They did pull a vein from your leg.

Yes, they took one from my lower left leg. Everytime I lift it and bend the knee, it burns like crazy. It has gotten better as time goes on, but it always reminds me that its there.

The surgeon has released me to work within the limits of my body, meaning if it hurts, STOP!. I am still not allowed to go back to work, so finances are very tight. I have pulled the bowflex out of storage and set it up now that the grandkids have moved out and we have room. Things are looking better everyday. I am walking up to 5 miles a day and my lower left leg no longer burns like crazy when I lift it.

Have to get it put back together. When all this started, I was waiting on the tax return to get the exhaust done, now we have had to live off that, so there is no money for the exhaust again. Maybe when I get back to my job. If its not one thing , its another.

It seems to take about a year to get back to 100% after open heart surgery, but how are you doing?

Ron, I have a Formula exhaust.  Same as what came on the 85 SE.  System is complete from the cat to the tips. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Ron, are you back to normal, if not 100%?
