Will definitely be remembering you tomorrow. My doctor has told me I need both knees replaced... I'm just putting it off as long as I can! But, I do know what knee pain is like. Hope this clears it up for you and you'll be back up and going soon. Let us hear from you when you can.
I just had both knees replaced on Sept 1 this year. I think I waited too long as I have not much strength in the muscles of my legs, since for the past several years I have simply gone from chair to chair. It hurt so to walk and stand. Now it does not hurt to walk, only the rising from a chair is difficult! I actually stood and cut out a whole quilt last night and trimed the edges on another this a.m. before a friend sewed on the binding (I hate that part, but like to hem the binding after it has been sewn on!). And today I sewed (for the first time since surgery) for 3 hours on a log cabin quilt, getting up to press after each 12 logs had been sewn on! I am soooooooo much better. Wish I had not waited so long! Hope you have yours done soon and that all goes well. :)
