Hi Sheryl! Best wished on your TKR!

I couldn’t be happier. I’m 68 y/o and was bone on bone from arthritis and running. I got my legs in shape with a trainer pre surgery, did ALL the recommended post op stuff, and now I’m in the gym 6 days/week.

All that pain is gone. I can’t do impact exercise, no running, jumping. But there is so much more I can do now.

The first week after surgery is the hardest, but completely doable. Then the pain starts to subside.

All the best to you!!!!!

Joe

Your note is so timely. I had my pre op surgeon appointment today. I have been planning now for months, but today I am feeling lost. I need a boost to get out of this mood. I know I am a fortunate one to have this chance at new knees again. What's wrong with me? No cold feet allowed.
