I have to get my left knee done soon but I have reservations. Keep us updated once u have surgery. I particularly am interested . Knowing the joint is artificial I wonder how scar tissue effects the artificial joint. Good luck Ross.

Ugh. This surgery (total knee replacement) clearly is not the silver bullet we were hoping it would be.... I am fortunate that my left is in great condition so I do not have to consider making that decision. I realize I brought him a trainwreck, but am obviously willing to go to the next level by having yet another surgery. I believe in the science and am thrilled when I see others who get the ride I was hoping for. Much respect for anyone who has gone through this. I guess results are as mixed as with covid patients. Much of the outcome can be determined by pre existing conditions?
