Knee #2- am I ready?

I just want to say that I am 7 weeks PO from a RTKR and there is no way in Hades I would even consider getting the other done until next year if it's possible. I am struggling with this one and will get cortisone shots, etc on my other one until this knee surgery is a distant memory. As you might have guessed, I'm not one of those who breezed through it and was shoveling snow 5 weeks PO.

Thanks for your reply! I wish cortisone still worked for me but after 5 years of shots, it doesn't. I do think I will chicken out if I don't get it done soon. I'm not shoveling snow but I am recovering well with flexion at 120 after 5 weeks and I'm driving to essential places like PT, the doctor and the pharmacy. I meet with the surgeon to discuss in a week so I'll surely take his opinion into consideration as well! Thank you.
