Thank you. You have shared a wide variety of coping strategies. We all know that replacement joints aren't ever going to be quite as good as the original (undamaged) one, that the goal is to get the best possible results as far as use and limited pain. It is very hard for some people to accept that there is work involved in maintaining the improvement - just like there is work involved in taking care of our "original parts."
I have a variety of replacement parts, and keeping them mobile indeed involves a care regimen, much like skin care or shaving...
