I have a right knee brace on.
I am doing great so far. I played one of the best rounds of golf in my life yesterday. I came with in 6" of making a hole in one on a par 3 and I drove the green on a short par 4. I ended up with an 80 and this was on a course I don't play that often.
Sorry to hear about your knee. My wife had both of hers done about 6 years ago and they are doing fine. She had both done at the same time BTW. Dr's don't like to do that for several reasons but the main reason is they don't make as much money. Her recovery was tough but I helped her and really pushed her.
Did you get the machine that flexes your leg. My wife did and I give it a lot of credit.
Hope you get it fixed up.
Prayers for complete recovery. Hopefully you aren't seeing the same surgeon.
I just got home from work and my right foot is burning.........it is always half numb/on fire from sciatic nerve damage due to to hip replacement surgery in 2019. If I had known the repercussions of that surgery...........I might not have done it. The loss of balance (especially over uneven terrain) due to not having full sensation in the foot is astounding.
Praying that your outcome is better than mine. Joint surgery is no joke.......and oh yeah.........I have to wear a lift in the left side shoe now, because 'ol Dr. Sawbones made my right side 1/4" longer than the left. And he is the chief ortho at my area VA.......for what that is worth.
Hoping for a great outcome on this surgery!
Wishing you the best. Had both mine replaced (6 months apart) and going well so far.
Seeing a specialist surgeon who fixes other surgeons screw-ups . And my left leg is 1/ 2 shorter than my right .I. wear a lift in my left shoe .
Sorry to hear about the problems with the replacement. Good luck on the upcoming surgery.
My knees are going and will have to have replacements. I am not looking forward to it.
Friends who had knees replaced said it was worse than hip replacement.
