Knee Pain After Revision

I had revisions on both knees within 2 years of the original replacements. Now I am experiencing horrible pain in the left knee. Went to the ortho who x-rayed it and said he thinks it's loose again!! He said I'm not a candidate for another replacement. I certainly do not want to think of another knee surgery but the pain is unbearable. He told me to keep riding the exercise bike. I am confused and thoroughly disgusted. After he did the revision on this knee, he told me it would never get loose. I made an appointment with another ortho for a second opinion, but have to wait almost 2 months to see him. I wish I would never have done any replacement at all. It hurts to walk and I am a widow who lives alone. I have to do everything for myself.
