Total Knee Replacement: Nervous about the surgery

Thank you so much, my TKR is scheduled for December 1. and I am already doing exercises twice a day, same exercises Alina Health is showing, as well.
I am in currently in Naples over winter and getting slowly nervous. They take it very serious, beneath exercises they want you to take Vitamin C, Zinc, Prebiotics, 9 essential Minerals, Miralax ( 3 days prior), Gatorade, m( (day before),…
I had to take an education class about my surgery, after my Pre OP on Tuesday, another information and instruction hour with a nurse…
I feel very well cared.

That's great to hear. I read too many complaints on here and it's usually because the patient simply didn't do the pre and post surgery exercises required (this varies with knee, hip, and shoulder - but ya gotta know the work).
I'm also amazed at people getting replacements who don't understand the procedure at all. Educate yourself and be committed to recovery and all will be well!
