My 76 year old uncle had his knee replaced at 75 yrs old.
He's golfing 18 holes again, on a regular basis nooo prob. He said that once they gave him the initial anesthesia for the operation, he no longer felt any pain, even after it wore off. None... That is amazing.... |

My left knee is pristine. There is no cure other that steroid shots into the knee joint which only last 3 to 4 weeks, or a knee replacement. I've done that and it is literally a waste of time and it hurts like a mofo. FF to 6 weeks ago when I fell into the stairs. Ok, well my knee really really hurts from that incident. I saw my primary two weeks ago; That is 4 weeks after the incident, and he referred me to this guy. I felt that i could heal on my own with time. Nope... It did not. FF to today. Between the meniscus , the osteoarthritis, and all of the jagged edges in there, there is no way that the pain will go away. Hey... I manned up for a long time. I just have to bite the bullet and get it done. Yes... It is radical at my age, but if you really think about it, I'll heal quickly and there will be no more pain..... if everything goes as planned. My knee is fried. Simple as that. |

Nothing jagged left Ask the surgeon if you could kneel using padded knee pads. I had my left knee reconstructed and was told I could never kneel again due to a thinner patella tendon ( the "missing" center is my new ACL --works great ) I purchased gel insert knee pads at Sears. Hard plastic outside and gel insert inside. I can kneel comfortably with no discomfort. Second quote, would arthroscopic surgery to clean up the knee buy you anymore time before knee replacement? They only last so long and you could literally be looking at another knee replacement later in life. Whatever you decide, best of luck |

Possible wear areas are the bone itself and the "plastic" wear surface. |

I'm comfortable with the technology , the surgeon, and location that I am having it done at. Older technology has lasted 25+ years. It of course depends on the patient. I have killer medical insurance, disability insurance, and plenty of sick time coming at work. I'll make more money being out for 8-10 weeks than working. The stars have aligned. What if in two years, I'm offered a buyout? See ya !! Bye bye !! The downside ? I get to pay for health insurance. If I have to get it redone when I'm , say 74, 20 years from now, I'm quite sure that the millennials will pay for it. |
