How should I prepare for my knee replacements?

Hello! I went to see my knee surgeon with my Dad yesterday for my 1 month follow up since my hydrogel treatment, and it has been decided that I undergo the TKR operation on the 13th September 2022.
I was in incredible pain, and my surgeon saw it yesterday from his office when I was walking up and down in his waiting area, trying to exercise my knee.
I could not even move, so he came and had a chat with us both while my Dad was sitting on the couch.

Please think of me, as this is a very big operation!

Hi @madz1979, The best thing you can do to help your knee replacement is to do the pre-surgery and post-surgery knee and leg exercises. It will make the recovery much easier. Has your surgeon given you any exercises to focus on before the knee replacement?

Oh i will be thinking of you. I have been approved for TKR but i am scared of how surgery will turn out. There are so many posts from people that have had bad results from replacement. It is a big deal. Thinking of you. Waiting for a great result from surgery
