Life After total knee replacement

Hope this helps you, emabhijeet. The hospital will give you all the information you need before the operation.

I watched it out of interest, tiredoldwoman because I have had two full knee replacements. Both were completely successful and I can now walk just fine. It can transform your life, so I hope you have it done, Even with a spinal anaesthetic (which is nowhere near as bad as it sounds) you can ask for a sedative and just float through the operation.
The physiotherapy afterwards is really important, and with any luck you should be walking just fine again within a very few weeks. And all that unbearable pain will be gone.

I watched a TKR op during the week , I didn't see the whole thing , I either fell asleep or passed out . It was horrific . I'm booked in on Thursday to see my doc about my unbearable knee pain but after watching that programme I am terrified . Did anyone else watch it and see the outcome ?

These are questions you should have asked your consultant. Many GNs have had knee replacements and I doubt if two are the same. Some will be cemented, others uncemented, not all will be full knee replacements.

Some will expect to walk 10 miles a day, others to do their normal everyday tasks without grinding pain. Some will expect to return to work, others will be semi or fully retired.
