Great to hear from you ...

The first 72 hours may be tough, but you sound like a strong bull and will be fine.

Think of a happy place, take meds and chill.

Thanks for the update sir.

I've had both done and am pain free and can squat, kneel and climb like I used to. I just turned 67 and my knees feel like they did when I was 35.

I watched a lot total knee cases 20+ years ago but they never had any robots assisting! I want to see this in action, has me quite curious.

Glad you did well. I'm facing replacement down the road. So far injections have taken care of it.

I am 80 years old and had one on August 19 and another about a year before that. The first was a breeze, walked without a walker or cane after 3 days. Up and down stairs after 10 days. The last one was about a week behind the first in recovery time and I still have a fair amount of swelling on that leg. No after surgery pain with either one. I did PT for a month before each one and followed PT religiously after surgery on both of them. My only regret is not doing it sooner!



Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming…......WOW! WHAT A RIDE!

A bit o' levity, for when the pain meds are fully kicked in....

The Breg Polar cuff is the bomb. Wife used it for her knee replacement and loved it.

A bit better, thanks, but still hurts way beyond expectations. Saw the ortho yesterday; he's happy with my progress (or lack of it), and is pushing me off to the PT Nazis next week.

Merry Christmas. Off to PT on my second knee replacement in a few minutes. If you need anything get in touch.
Praying for a quick recovery for you.
