Just a little anxious about how this will effect my activities. Is it your "pedaling" leg ? Not sure if I could switch feet successfully. LOL! Never thought of trying.
    Dr. Lawrence G. Morawa out of dearborn. had did it done at Oakwood Heritge hospital in taylor. they have 2 floors dedicted to bone and joint. specialized after care. i would love it if you could see him! awesome surgeon.

    Pedaling leg?! ROFL! i don't use my pedal, i have a stop and go button! (janome 6600)

    Thanks everyone! i am doing great, first full day of PT..hurting, but i know, that it is worth it in the end. a matched set of knees! it is a good thing!

    although i do have one complaint..McDonalds doesn't deliver coffee, and it seems i have lost an ankle..i have all the nurses out looking for it..that said it would show up eventually..
    :wink:

    glad to hear you are feeling better, take each day and soon you will be well (my mom had double knee replacement 5 years ago and she is fine now) just be sure to do your physical therapy

    a friend of my mom's refused the physical therapy and now she is in a wheelchair

    my mom is doing great and no longer in pain and can walk walk walk and she is 77 years old

    I understand that knee surgery is very painful to recover from. Glad to hear you are doing well.

    Take care and do what the Doctor says. Good luck for a speedy recovery.
    I had a total hip replacement 18 yrs ago and all is well with it.
