Pretty much most of 2020 I have been suffering with my left knee and after a series of X rays my surgeon has confermed progression of the medial compartment osteoarthrritis and as it is down bone on bone he feels I am a good candiadate for a medial unicondylar replacement.

Theatre is less than a month away but of recent the knee feels better.

Played golf today with no side effects Not able to squat or pull the knee back 90 deg though

I have private medical cover through work and want to get it done before I retire in 18 months time.

Dont know what to do for the best now .

Do i go ahead or delay it ?

Any advise appreciated

Dennis

    For best results after knee replacement, it is best to devote all your time to rehabilitation.
