@pfreeman61, I can only say that I would have much rather had my knee replacement in my 50s or 60s rather than when I had it done at age 76. I think the rehab would have been a little easier for me. I also had a knee injury in the right knee that was replaced. I was in my 40s and playing softball and tore the cartilage in the knee. After the surgery to remove the cartilage, I had problems with the knee for over 20 years. Cortisone shots helped for awhile but degenerative arthritis and old age finally caught up with me and if I wanted to keep mobility I had to have the replacement.

Do you have concerns about have the knee replacement surgery?
