Good luck to you. I have had my hip replased not my knees & I can tell you they are right the rehab is the key. Stick with it & it well work out fine. God bless,
71/2 yrs ago, the doctor told me I needed both of my hips replaced. I told him, when I come to see you in a wheel chair, then I will have them replaced![8D]
And I thought you were smarter than that! Reb, if you go to get your hips done when you cannot walk your muscles will be short and poorly toned. Your rehab will take much longer and you'll have more pain if you rehabilitate well at all. Don't be a duffus, what you are doing is not a good thing. My father inlaw had it done twenty years ago and he handled the rehab like a king. He had it redone 15 years later and the rehab was even easier the second time becuase of medical advancements. The cuts are smaller and the proceedures are better. I have a customer that is walking without pain in 6 weeks! Now are you telling me that these guys are better than you?
