RTKR Tomorrow!
I’ve been following this group for awhile now, since I got my surgical date; this is my first post. Big day is tomorrow, right knee replacement after 40+ years of pain. Following C3-7 y L5-S1 fusions and a left hip replacement, that knee stepped to the front of the line. I’ve been putting it off for the last couple of years, getting steroid shots every 3 months or so, but it’s time to get out of the wheelchair y get my life back. My surgeon is a rockstar, having done thousands of knees at this point. He did my hip replacement and I woke up in the post-op crying tears of joy because my pain was GONE, y ROM was back. I will reply with updates, but I just wanted to thank everyone for all the advice, info, y insights. I’m a godless heathen but all prayers for a speedy recovery without complications are gratefully accepted.
