Hi,
I am schuduled for bkr in Feb. I also am worried about having it done, but my knee pain is so severe, I am deparate for relief. I am 50 and slightly over weight, but in good shape. I am happy to have found this site and have gotten answers to many of my questions here.
I am wondering if anyone has traveled and been able to complete PT outside of the state that they live in. I live in the Boston area and we have a home in Ft Lauderdale Fla. I was thinking that after the initial 2 weeks, I could drive to Fla and recover there. I have 2 dogs and do not want to leave them or fly them. Will insurance pay for PT out of your residential state? Will I be able to withstand the drive as a passenger?
Also, I am a Pharma Rep and do a lot of driving and lugging for my daily work.
Is 8-10 weeks a realistic estimate to give my boss for return to work?
Thanks!!
