    Ewwie; A total knee replacement. That sounds like all sorts of fun.

    My mom needs to have one done, and I told her I would do it for nothing and she just looks at me and says, "Uh, son, I Love You with all my heart, but I think I'll let the doctors handle this one."

    All the best tx.

    My father had a knee replacement last month. The first 48-72 hours is pure hell. Six weeks later, he's almost back to where he was pre-op. Six weeks from now, he should be much better than before.

    Good luck, yo. Once you're conscious and home, you'll be on here nonstop because you won't have much else you can do while laid up. :)

    Dude. I just watched about as much as I could of a total knee replacement video on google. Holy shit. That surgeon was not gentle, AT ALL.

    Knee was splayed open like a butterflied penis.

    I made it through about five minutes.

    Does. Not. Want.
