I know what you mean, Bill. My wife's 10 days past her surgery. This is her 11th such procedure (4 knee, 6 hip, 1 elbow), and I'm STILL learning how to be less of an ass.? Can't imagine what a wimp I'd be if I were in her shoes.

I first watched this video 11 months after my wife had this done. Now? I feel like I've been an insensitive ass for the last 11 months. I'm sure it's been longer then that though. She is doing great now and is able to walk and be on it for extended periods with only a little discomfort at times. I'm committed to being less of an ass

@titansfreak32 I work for an orthopedist...the dr is probably thinking wow i didn't do a good job. surgery is not a guarentee. but? its suppose to help out better than what pain u were in. also note. everyone reacts differently to surgeries...some are a success and alot are not.

It is not? for just old people my husband is getting his done soon and he is only 38.

Had mine done 1-4-11, I have broke bones, had my knees? scoped, pain wise those are a walk in the park compared to TKRS

@kakay47 It is not ...
@kakay47 It is not just for old people...lots of athletes end uo doing TKR. I had it in 2006. My knee is still swelled up. I still have pain and if I do anything with my legs (I like to work out and hike) my knee swells worse and it hurts a lot. Two surgeons from different practices believe scar tissue has grown into the prosthetic and is slowly separating like a tree root will do to sewer and water conduit. Both recommend replacement? surgery which is even more painful than first! Och!

@tandforsumr I had ...
@tandforsumr I had my TKR almost 4 years ago and am in constant pain. I am 34 years old and when? I would go to him for help, he would just look at me like I was crazy, saying that it was all in my head. He never would say it, but I'm sure that he thought that I was just after pain meds. I am in so much more pain now, than before I even had the surgery. I am going to attempt to go back and see him one last time, and if he doesn't want to fix me, then I will go somewhere else.
