I will have a TKR on my right knee. My first surgery EVER.

Rescheduled my surgery from Aug. 6 to July 24. (Whoever reviews this needs to delete me from the August surgeries, please).

After much soul searching and frustration, I changed to a different doctor. I've consulted with 3 surgeons. The one most recommended by friends is booked through November and I do NOT wish to wait that long. It took me a while, but I finally made a decision. After booking the August surgery with the other doctor, I just couldn't seem to feel "right" about it. Now that I've changed, I feel good about it. I know my friends and family are glad to have me decide so I'll shut up! LOL
