    Hi Layla. Thanks for reminding me about my anniversaries. It's hard to believe the surgeries were that long ago :) I am doing fine... pretty much back to normal life. In this madness I am trying to exercise at home as all the gyms are closed. Hope you guys are all good too. Keep safe! xoxoxo

    I am doing just fine... thanks for asking. I was too busy with work this past week so I didn't have time to go to the gym.

    Welcome @Suzibmy1. You will find many articles here that will ease your anxiousness. We are all the same but @GrannyC nailed it with her comment above. The surgery itself is the easiest part of the whole adventure. You will be amazed how wonderful is NOT to feel the osteoarthritis pain again.

    Thanks for asking @VSlowLife. I am doing pretty good. Walking unassisted for the last 10 days or so. Leg muscles getting stronger. Working out at the gym every second day (biking 5 to 10 km to warmup then using various machines for strengthening upper and lower body muscles). Noting to crazy...

    Thanks everyone for the nice messages :) I am sure there is still a long way to the full recovery (if ever) but I'll do my best not to do anything stupid and jeopardize all the progress. ' Yeah... I think I am ready to work again :) ... I can't wait!

    Thank you @Mojo333 and @Layla. Things are good with me. I've been going to the gym for the last two weeks every second day. Biking 10 km on stationary bike to warm up then using machines to strengthen leg muscles and working on upper body. Finishing with 15 min sweating in the sauna. So far, I...
