I couldn't agree more. Quality of life is important! Besides, 80s are the new 60s.

I am only six days out and walking with a walker because my surgeon insists on it but I was also severely misaligned with my right (surgical) leg splayed outward. My surgeon did a functional alignment and I am amazed at how my two legs now line up.

@steveinarizona I am right there with you! It is wonderful to have both legs be in alighnment. However, I am having to learn to walk again because I am using different muscles when I walk. I am curious, are you experience that also?
