2016 January Jackpots - Are you having knee surgery in January?

[chicklady]

So, I'm wide awake - in pain, early on the morning of the 19th. The day that I should have been going in for my replacement. But I was phoned 3 days ago to inform e that my consultant's list was cancelled for today. No reason, just cancelled. I've already waited an extra month because of delays, and I just feel so helpless. I was ready, both mentally & physically but now I'm in limbo. I don't quite know what to do. My mobility is getting worse as is the pain. I'm on the maximum pain relief I can take, I'm not thinking clearly & I'm still trying to work as best I can whilst also caring for my Husband & my Mother. All my plans are in disarray - again! Absolutely fed up.

that's the NHS for last year I had my operation cancelled 4 time my heart goes out to you strong you'll get there in the end

Hi, will you please remove me from this list. . I had to cancel my surgery scheduled on 1/25 - life just got too busy! I plan on rescheduling in the fall

January 6 2016. Right total knee replacement
Hi everyone!
I found this forum after my procedure. My new year's resolution was to get my arthritic knees replaced so I could be active again. January 6 is my birthday and I had my right knee replaced. I figured this is the best gift I can give myself. Tomorrow I get the staples out. Yeah! I was at 97 degrees flexon yesterday.
It has been so helpful reading about everyone's journey. Thanks for sharing.
