@mayo99824 I completely agree with you that different people have different experiences. My experience was not good yet I have two friends who had very good luck. I have sought out second and third opinions. My first surgeon was dismissive and the office told me to “contact my primary care” for continued support.My second opinion dr had me do a special imaging test to look at the knee replacement and it is fine, with the exception of some scar tissue. My left knee is very painful so my “third opinion orthopedic dr. He told me about a recently developed procedure called “genicular ablation” so I will look into it.
