Replies to "@scottb32 Hi Scott. I was supposed to have the knee replacement a few years ago but..."
Thanks for sharing your experience. Helps me kind of relax about moving forward with the process. My plan is to schedule the procedure for early December. Sounds like you're doing well and I hope this continues. I'm glad your knees are good and I had to read it several times while laughing! Thanks again for your insight.
That was supposed to be that he broke the bad NEWS, he did not break my knees! I am writing this and it’s cracking me up.
To elaborate a bit more, my platelet count had been bad for a while so the surgeon would not do the surgery unless we could get the count up to @100. My hematologist worked with me on it but for some reason they plummeted on the morning of surgery.
Of course when my NASH cirrhosis was finally diagnosed about two years later we realized that was what caused the low platelet count.
