Knee Replacement Surgery-A little anxiuos

-
Dwayne, I'm Glad to hear everything well other than that pesky gout:cheers:. Soon you'll be up and around and working on the Dart.
Oh yeah, tell your wife I went and looked at a 4th Demon yesterday:toothy10:
 
Glad to hear everything's going well so far. Now comes the fun stuff - rehab!
It does get better and you'll be amazed what it's like to walk again without pain.
Total knee replacement or partial?

Total- doctor felt it was too late for the partial and as many others on this thread have commented "partials don't work that great overall".:cheers:

Did they put you under or did they do a local ?
 
I'm glad your home safely. Keep us posted as you go- I've got this looming in my future as well...

Mike I had a spinal and a femural block. Was awake for the whole thing.
Femural block works like a dentist when they deaden the nerves and then it wears off. Only problem, didn't time external drugs right- The block goes off like a light switch-10:55 had no pain-11:00- pain was excrucriationg till it was brought under control.
Would definetly do it the same way thought.

Thank you for the reply 72Swinger340, I will be needing some work dun soon but I can't do Anastasia, sounds like that will be the way the doctors will go for me.

I am so glad things went well for ya bud :cheers:And thank you for the info :cheers:

I wouldn't go any other way. Doctors are recommending it simply because there is a lot less problems getting people woke up again such as throwing up..
 
Here is how my leg looks one week after surgery.

Dang........That looks sore, Hope you are doing alright.
Yea a little sore Chris, but coming along a little better each day- look at it this way you and I probably have the same tools in our shops as the doctor used. Just their drugs are legal !!!!!!LOL
