It's good if you can avoid a TKR through exercise and if necessary, weight management. I don't know your particulars.

Also, if it does become necessary, find a gym and a personal trainer and get your leg as strong as possible prior to surgery.

I did that and was dedicated to all the rehab exercises and PT immediately following surgery. My surgeon also used the Stryker/Mako robotic assistance.

All the best. Let us know if you have questions as well. I found the replacements to be life changing, at 69 y/o!
