left knee replacement next Thursday
Do the therapy and it will be O.K. My dad played a lot of rounds of golf in the years after his double knee replacement. I have a neighbor who says that the therapy hurt too much and she still can't really walk.
Hey Spinner,
I hope all goes well with the knee replacement. And THAT IS an "anticipatory size" net you're sportin there. Great pics too.

Good Luck!

I have known several people who have had knee replacements and this advice is spot on. If you do the therapy diligently, you will make a good recovery. Those who did not do the therapy have had lots of problems since.Quote:

Len,
My wife's doctor told her he could replace her knee but if she didn't do the therapy all she would have is a new knee that still hurt and wouldn't function properly. She had some wonderful in house visits by a therapist and then several sessions at the office. Plus I had my whip and chair nearby if needed - it wasn't! Doc said most folks make it to about 90% to 100% as far as bending the knee and they like to see about 110% or better. My wife made it to 130%! Good luck with the surgery but that's the easy part of the battle. Be looking for more on stream photos in a couple of months. :D
Yep, do the therapy every day, every day, every day and you will be fine. If you don't, you most likely will end up with a knee that hurts and does not work decently.
So, while you are healing, find a boat to fish out of, you will need to fish on a larger body of water for a while, one that a boat can be used.
Good luck on the surgery.

In time!
Until then, best of luck to you. Hope your recovery is quick!
