I don't know if I belong here or not because I've had a TKR and a Total Knee Revision, but now I am having another Total Knee Revision (all same right knee) on November 5, 2015...so although I am not new to this, technically, I am pre op once again! Lucky me

So sorry that you're going through this a third time, Bonnie. Sort of a case of "if not for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.)

I am 2 weeks away from having my surgery (2nd Nov) RTKR have been doing some exercises at the swimming pool to hopefully strengthen my leg & arm muscles...not sure if this will be of any help but it has been good for the mind to try to keep active. Good luck to all those that are having surgery at the same time & look foward keeping in touch to help each other

Hello, I'm scheduled for November 19 RTKA. I've lived with both knees bad and weight loss helped but didn't quite get me there. I used braces, cortisone shots and finally decided that was enough when my knee would wake me in the night, stiffness and being an all around grumpy old man.
Seems you compensate until it really bothers you and sometimes you take it out on the ones you love, quality of life, and work start to suffer. Also 4-8 Advil a day is a pretty good clue I would guess.

I saw one Dr. who said with no cartlidge in one knee (bone to bone) and very very little in the right I was a candidate for TKA in both knees. I saw another Dr. I had heard very good things about and after looking at X-Rays he asked when do you want to do it, this is my schedule.
I have a positive outlook on it, I love golf and it will be allowed and I am looking forward to no pain or stiffness. I also plan to have the left one done as soon as the Dr. clears me.
