Hello everyone.
It has been awhile since I have posted anything due to moving. I was to have a TKR on 6/8 but it was cancelled due to the fact A1c was 7.5. I am trying to get that back down to under 7. Now my PCP has put me on insulin.
My question is there any of you diabetics are have any knowledge about TKR, insulin and diabetes. I have been diabetic for along time and had a THR with no problems, but it seems my pancreas is not producing as much insulin as it should hence the insulin. Can you have TKR safely ?
Thanks
