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.

Go for it Maggie. Now it's a big procedure so it's not gonna be very comfortable week 1. But they get you walking right after surgery (a pt will visit you), and then you go home and start the exercises the net day. Yes it's gonna hurt for a while. But remember what it feels like now.
Post op, you will get a little better each day. Just please, please, please, do the exercises at home, three times a day or whatever is recommended. It will pay off and you will be so happy.
All the best! Joe

Go for it. I almost jumped and changed my mind while getting ready for surgery. But i went thru with it and very happy. My knee feels so young after 4 months. Can do things I forgot I couldn’t do anymore because of pain.
Had robotic assistance surgery and couldn’t be happier.
