Just learned I will need total knee replacement surgery for both knees "sooner than later" as the doc said.
If any of you out there have gone through this surgery, I'll appreciate hearing about your experience. In particular, how long did it take you to get back to work, and back into the pool? How long before your knee(s) were pain free while swimming (and turning!)? Are you happy you had the surgery? Did you experience any problems with blood loss? How long did you go to physical therapy? Anything else I should know before signing up for this? :confused:
Thanks!
Hi Lucyj. Hope your replacement and recovery has gone well. Curious as to your experience and how you are doing now. At some point I will have to have TKR to both knees. I have no doubt the pain reduction will be worth it but absolutely no idea how it impacts swimming and competitive swimming on the other side. Would love to hear your experience.
