Revision LTKR on June 5 - loose tibial implant
Doc doesn't have a clear idea why implant is loose. He did a cementless approach, so this could be cause. Bone scan was inconclusive. Thought at one time it was infected - had some very high CRP and ESR levels - but synovial fluid was fine. So just waiting to find out ... not really anxious about recovery. More like "let's just get this done" mode.

Having RTKR June 11th. Terrified does not even begin to cover it. I was originally scheduled in November and chicken out and cancelled the surgery. Hope I can get through this.

What is your worst fear? I've finally learned that most of the things we worry about don't happen ...
I hope you can get the kind of support/information that will allay your fears. Babette

Hello June Sunbeams, I feel like I know you all now so I changed my Avatar. (Ursula inspired me with her photo update). So, here is me in Nov. 17, still walking my dog and getting about 7500 steps per day on my Fitbit (down from old days of 10-12,000). This was with the help of tramadol at 1/2 the prescribed dose, 1/2 Aleve, and some medical CBD. Prior to preparing for surgery, I just limped along behind hubby and pup and made it home in pain. Since going off everything to prepare, I am not walking at all with them! So, here's a reminder for me of one of many reasons I'm doing this after 4 years of pool, adapted yoga, and light meds! Note, the Wonder Woman tee says, "Can't help now, I have to walk my husky!". See you all soon in our next steps! Peace and Love, Claudia

This was meant for hip pre-op forum.. Best wishes to all of you. I'll re-post correctly!

I'm having bilateral total knee replacements June 18,2018. I'm terrified! But, reading information & posts here have helped calm my fears. I really appreciate this site & all the people who have taken the time to tell their stories.
