TKR AlanL's Preop Thread

[AlanL]

I am having the right knee done Monday Oct 2. I participated in this group back in 2011 when i had the left knee done and found the support and information in this forum valuable in the recovery process. So, I'm checking back into the group and wanted to say hi.
Wow, have things changed - was in the hospital for 5 days first time, now it's an outpatient thing. Little anxious about that but excited to get this done. Good luck everyone with your surgeries.

@AlanL, welcome back to Bonesmart. I pray for your successful TKR! Many have their surgeries done as outpatients. The main thing is to be sure your pain is adequately controlled.

I‘ve moved your post above out of the Monthly team thread as we reserve that thread for surgery date information, and so members can see who else has surgery the same month. We prefer all other comments and discussions to take place in a pre-op or recovery thread, such as this one. So, I’ve started this Recovery Thread for you. Enjoy interacting with others who are on the same journey, here in this thread.

Hello Alan!
Welcome back and thanks so much for your kind words in regard to the forum and for joining us again.
It says a lot! Less than a handful of days to go before relief is on the way. We'll be watching for you on the Knee Recovery Forum to cheer you on once you're back home.
Lots of comfort to you as you await Monday and best wishes!
