I really haven't had a chance to talk to my OS. He told my family about the damage that was caused from it being loose for so long. Yes the plastic patellar button.
Sorry it has taken me so long to update. I had my revision done on the 22 of Sept at 8am. I was back in my room by noon. Everything went great. Found out a lot about the original replacement and I kept my components.
So the original replacement loosened and damaged the bones in both the...
The surgeon that did my TKR does do a lot of replacements. He was even bragging that he has people down hill skiing on his knees. Every time that crosses my mind I just think well what the heck happened here.

I do have a appt. With a new OS on June 26 I think that's the date. I'm in the process of getting all my medical records around for this surgeon. I didn't realize a revision would last that long. So yup probably not going to be able to get them both done. I am so tired of my life revolving...
I am new to this site. I also have never posted about my total knee replacement. It has been a adventure that's for sure. I'm 37 yr old, found out in 2010 that I have osteoarthritis in both knees. I just dismissed it as I'll deal with it later. Well later finally came and I couldn't take...
