I had double total knee replacements about 9 years ago - the best

My knee replacements involve a 'plastic' piece (Patella replacement)
between the upper and lower fittings - typical in total knee
replacements - like a cushion of sorts. I go out of my way to make
sure I minimize any pounding action while being mobile - I figure
those pieces have the least life of any of the parts involved. I don't
intend to have knee replacements again.

I agree. I'm sure you'll be out & about in no time, Paul. It's
amazing what they do today, almost routine. I have running
acquaintances who are still at it after knee & hip replacements. They
tend to be heavier builds. At only 60kg, I seem to be OK so far.

You'll be much happier! Buddy of mine did a knee last Summer, he's a
changed man. I had a total hip in October and it's been great.
Heal well and do your therapy!

I'm in for a knee replacement. Had surgery yesterday, and I'm
already walking, albeit slowly. I've needed it for a long time but
couldn't do it when I had to care for my wife. The surgeon said the
knee was a mess and he was surprised I could walk. But I'm going to
be good now. Getting new teeth as well. It's a full frame-off
restoration.
