Osteoarthritis Knee Replacement Surgery Posted: 07-10-07 01:57am
To those of you who have had knee
replacements. How satisfied are you? Did
it eliminate your pain? What replacement
was used? Please tell me how the recoup
period went for you. Things like, how long
until you could drive or go up & down
stairs.
I have osteoarthritis & facing a
replacement. I am putting it off as long
as possible. Also have it in my thumbs.
Had surgery on one many years ago &
very satisfied with it. The other needs to
be done.
Thanks,
Wanda
