@Arlene56 - I have not been able to bike outside for the last 8 months. I am able to ride my recumbent bike indoors. How about you?
 
Glad I have some knee replacement buddies to go through this journey with. January 29th is the big day for me. Wish it could have been done sooner but I had a stroke in September, this pushed the date out and had to work on a blood thinner solution: good luck to all!

I forgot to mention its my left knee total replacement on the 29th - the right will have to wait :(

@Smokey253 :welome:to the group. Sorry to hear about your stroke. I hope you are recovering well. Good luck with the knee replacement!
 
Doing really well recovering from the stroke: I was blessed with a husband who recognized what was happening and convincing me to head to the ER where I received quick care. I worked hard and was able to return to work after 6 weeks: now on to these darn knees and get back to life, I missed out on so much. Good luck to all of you. I’m thinking dancing by June!

I will be having my RTKR on January 21st. My original date was December 20th, so I would appreciate it if I could be removed from that group.
 
January 9 I'll get my failed knee replacement replaced. I'm hoping this knee will be the charm, because I've suffered through 8 years of one that did not work.
 
Good luck, Mary! I hope you have a great outcome. You certainly do deserve it after all this time.

Are any of you buying a recliner? I really don’t have the room or the money for it, but I keep hearing how much I will need it.

I did the research about the right kind of recliner to buy and decided it was not in my budget to get one. I read many posts that indicated a sofa with pillows can work fine.

Welcome to all the January Jackpots especially @Didot and @moon2stars, who are having TKR the same day I am.

Will be great to see how we go. Where do you live? I’m in Australia, so will be ahead in time I guess!!!

Aaaaaand I'm back in the game. Saw my surgeon on Wednesday, and I have been scheduled for January 2nd. Getting a new date was like getting an early Christmas prezzie.

Right TKR.

Last time I tried, I got as far as the pre-surgery meds, and I was nice and cozy in the warming blanket, before I was kicked out.
