Midrsv Posted February 16, 2014 #3 Posted February 16, 2014 Duey, best of luck with the knee. Had one replaced about 13 months ago with great success. Do the therapy and follow all orders and things should go well. Dennis
MikeWa Posted February 16, 2014 #4 Posted February 16, 2014 We wish the best for you. When it is time for physical therapy push as hard as you can. The pain now will be worth the reward later. Mike
bill in mn Posted February 16, 2014 #5 Posted February 16, 2014 how exciting to be pain free again. I'm wearing out myself had knee surgery done in Dec. for a torn meniscus and carpel tunnel surgery this coming Thursday . My left hand has been going numb and feels like needles in it all the time now.My wife's tolerance to MY pain is very high but she has reached her limit and I also need to pull the clutch in. Best of everything and it's amazing what they do these days.
Guest Posted February 16, 2014 #7 Posted February 16, 2014 Had mine done about 2 years ago. You wont regret it as long as you ignore the pain of therapy.......LOL. Take your oxy's 1/2 hr before therapy and you should be good. Getting to that magical ROM number of 120 is exhilarating........ Good luck
dueyk1111 Posted February 20, 2014 Author #9 Posted February 20, 2014 Well, Here it is! Back home from surgury, knee has less pain in it now, than it did afore i went in for surgury, Total knee replacement, had me up stand'n on it that afternoon.

I want to THANK all who sent prayers my way, that is a great 'n' wonderful power!!!! Really gitt'n' anxious to ride now!!! COME on warmer weather!!!!!!
