Have had both of mine replaced several years apart. First was done by a older surgeon the old big cut way. Got along well and was back milking cow in a short time.Several years later had the other one done by different surgeon. The old one had retired. New young buck used the new less cutting way. I quizzed him hard about his method. He assured me he had all of the answers. It was pure h--- Put me on one of those Morphine drip deals and I was a complete nut. I did not know who I was for three or four days. I had checked with my primary care Doctor before I went in for isurgery. Sure glad I did as he stepped in and baled me out. The surgeon had one of those ice water circulating packs on my knee for quite some time and I did all of the exercise. Came home and tharapist came to house every day and then went for rehabilitation which was pure h----. You have to ask surgeon a lot of question. If my second would have came out the same as the first I would have been happy. The second surgeon asked me what kind of a replacement was used in my first and said, "That is the older type the one I use is much better". He was a lier so far as I am concerned. I went with a cane for some time, then a walker, then walker with wheels and a seat and have a electic wheel chair for going any distace. Yes I have no knee pain but the last one done sur never carried its load. Sure I do not have a big scar on the second one but I never was in a beauty contest. Good Luck. But asked some of the other patient of your selected surgeon how they got along. My second surgeon was kicked out of hospital because of anger contol.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
