You are quite welcome. I’m so impatient, but careful, slow, and steady is definitely the way to go with TKR. It’s a very big deal. The good news is, that to a person, I have only heard it was the best decision they ever made regarding their knees. We’ll see. Hopeful.

16 months out on my right knee, 18 days on my left. Hard to remember now while I'm in the middle of my second one, but hands down the best thing I ever did for my knee arthritis which I've had for over 20 years. I was back to hiking after my first, and now with the second I can't wait to have to brand new knees. It is an amazing surgery but one of the most painful things I have gone through. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Hang in there! I am an RN and started back to work at 3 months. By six months it was incredible, and by a year, wow, felt like my own knee. Trust the process!
