@Steelergal just had a MUA and as of her last post it has helped a lot, but she had some very bad issues.
I had my knees done at 9 weeks apart and it's been fine. I think it might be a little extra exhausting and you'll want to work hard to avoid feeling shut in because at a little over 4 months since my knee replacement journey began, I'm pretty tired of it, but it's better than having the horrible pre-replacement pain, so I try to keep that in mind.
I recommend you find some extra things, new hobbies, maybe some holiday charity work? Things that you can do to stay busy in a little challenged mentally while you really rest physically.

I felt like this was happening at first after the left replacement. It wasn't actually in my case, but it was a perception issue. My knee had gone from seriously skewed and permanently bent to straight and that felt like a massive hyperextension to me with every step.Is it normal for your knee to "slip" or "buckle" a little?
