Surgeon said I could expedite the timeline, all being well, and get the other leg done 3 months after the first.

Anyone done this? How did you find it?

Hey,

I’m booked in for a TTO with distilisation later this year. Surgeons protocol is for straight away weight bearing (with brace on) and bending when not weight bearing. This is contrary to everything else I’ve heard from other people’s experiences and from online advice.

Has anyone else followed this immediate weight bear protocol? How did it go?

Niche request but I’d really like to speak to someone who has had this very specific operation. It’s not a typical TTO, the distilisation is a specific procedure in of itself. I’ve got so many questions and feeling very scared.

Thank you :)

I need TTO and fat pad debridement on both knees. Trying to decide whether to go ahead or not. Surgeon offering limited / no info.

Is anyone able to show me before / after of your knee? I’m keen to know what your scars are like and also if your leg looks noticable different eg you have a bump and can see the metal work. I’m really worried about this destroying my self esteem.

Anyone know what the rules are on this? I’m currently in middle of a SOC assessment but I know my client will soon be hiring and I really want to work with them, and they seem keen on me as well.

However I have a feeling there are some rules around this? If I applied, do I need to tell my current employer I have done so?
