Hi Lawanna,
I agree that post-op care is best for you. The first two weeks or so are the hardest, and it's just safer if you have someone around. And it's safer for you to do the exercises post-op, which are very important. It includes walking with a walker, and you really need someone around for that. It will also help ensure a smooth and quicker recovery.
You said your knees are bone-on-bone, and that tells me a replacement is the best thing. By the time I got my first knee replaced, I couldn't sleep due to the pain.
It is good that your pain is not significant. Even so, my belief is that replacement is inevitable at this point.
I wish you the very best! I think you will be very happy with the results.
Joe
