WELL it looks like I'm starting again I am booked in for my other leg TKR 13th December 11 months after my right leg Its certainly been a journey My leg maybe still not fully healed but i am satisfied I had a major fall 4 months ago needing 27 stitches in triage a&e I am almost healed with that took s long time as they used blanket stitches as they were unable to stitch normal skin too thin on the shin so why I'm going ahead with TKR to the same leg beggers belief 😁😁😁😁Anyway im sure YOU all will be looking forward to me moaning AGAIN 😁😁😁😁 I hope im a brave bunny lets face it i know what to expexpct and what to do # dont I?# 😁😁😁

Hi Joan. Good luck with your second TKR.
How bad is your osteoarthritis? I'm just wondering your take on whether the pain of the aftermath of a TKR is worth it. Evidently you think so as your proceeding with the second.

Well worth the pain I am due to have an injectionfor osteoporosis as my GO says the results of my density bone scan shows I could break a bone turning iver in bed I have suspended that treatment till I'm over my next TKR as the side effects of this injection are not good feel I have enough to cope with TKR for the moment so will have that done next year 😁

Wow, I give you credit. I knew I had to have both done when I started. Well I’m 15 weeks P.O. from rtkr and I don’t think I will ever get the left one done. It will take a miracle for me to change my mind. I am just waiting for this nightmare to end. I want to wake up and not feel that tight rubber band feeling. I want to sleep without a pill and go through ONE whole day without pain. Forgive me ranting, today has not been a good one😞

15 weeks is STILL early I reckon it was only at the 6 month mark I could say well I'm over the worst mind you I did have my leg injury in the other leg to take my mind off it I actually kicked a ball to my grandson the other day and used my TKR LEG and forgot lol I did say I must be mad to have another TKR but the rewards speak for themselves Hope you turn the corner soooooon x
