@tpellerin, thank you so much for your wishes for my surgery. I'm trying hard to think positively because I believe as you do, positive thinking is half the battle! Unfortunately, there's that little doubt in the back of the mind wondering if I'll be worse off than I am not. Then I try and shoo it away. If it's meant to be, it'll happen!

Welcome to our June party, @faxman. I am so sorry to hear about your failed replacement. What happened? Do you have a new OS now?

 

[uva55]

@knitkathy I am also scheduled for a right TKR on June 13th, and we all have those doubts when our knee is not hurting, I just go for a short walk and the knee reminds me that I made the right decision....We will be fine and get our life back after surgery...good luck!!!

 

[uva55]

Good luck @bigt sometimes I wish I could move mine so that I can stop thinking about it and put it behind me.

 

[Floridagal]

I'm still a Sunbeam but now on June 9th instead of June 21st! What a difference two weeks make!

 

[bottomshollow]

@Floridagal, your surgery date has been officially changed!

 

[abe faxman]

i had a lot of problems with the OS and the hospital he works at. 2 canceled surgerys due to hospital failures and poor doctor communications. i now going to differnant hospital. This doctor ran a lot tests and knows what may be wrong.

 

[Floridagal]

Guess what! Another phone call today and the date has been shifted forward AGAIN. My surgery is now scheduled for June 1. Of course, I could have said "no" but I am eager to get this done.

 

[bottomshollow]

@Floridagal, your surgery date has been officially changed for the second time!

 

[Eureka]

I am scheduled for bilateral knee replacement on June 13 at Texas Orthopedic Hospital in Houston. A little nervous but committed. Lot's of reactions about doing both at the same time!

 

[uva55]

@Eureka, I will also be having my RTKR on June 13th!!!

 

[uva55]

@MarciHeff, welcome to the forum, there is a lot of great information here, I am having my RTKR on June 13th...Good luck with your surgery!!!
