Cody, I had my left knee replaced in 2001 and my right one replaced in 2002. I was 61 years of age in 2001. I had been told that if I didn't have a knee replacement that I would be wheelchair bound. I am a stubborn ex-farmer and former marine and I wasn't going down without a fight. To make a long story short, the biggest factor in my quick recovery, I was walking on it in a week and went back to work in a month, was AQUA therapy. That's when you get into a swimming pool under supervision of a physical therapist, in my case 2 hours a day, 2 days a week. I progressed in one month that took other people 10 weeks to do. I'm post 5 years after my first surgery and would not hesitate one second to have it done again. There won't be anymore pain my friend. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. If you would like to call me at home-farm (814-495-9766) or at work-Engineering Co (814-269-9300 xt 215) feel free to do so. Good luck and "GOD Bless". Let me know how you make out.
