I am an RN in K'zoo, and getting ready to schedule a shoulder replacement. Know several people who have had knees done, but no one who has had a shoulder. Just a little anxious about how this will effect my activities. Is it your "pedaling" leg ? Not sure if I could switch feet successfully. LOL! Never thought of trying.
Dr. Lawrence G. Morawa out of dearborn. had did it done at Oakwood Heritge hospital in taylor. they have 2 floors dedicted to bone and joint. specialized after care. i would love it if you could see him! awesome surgeon.
Pedaling leg?! ROFL! i don't use my pedal, i have a stop and go button! (janome 6600)
Thanks everyone! i am doing great, first full day of PT..hurting, but i know, that it is worth it in the end. a matched set of knees! it is a good thing!
although i do have one complaint..McDonalds doesn't deliver coffee, and it seems i have lost an ankle..i have all the nurses out looking for it..that said it would show up eventually..

glad to hear you are feeling better, take each day and soon you will be well (my mom had double knee replacement 5 years ago and she is fine now) just be sure to do your physical therapy
a friend of my mom's refused the physical therapy and now she is in a wheelchair
my mom is doing great and no longer in pain and can walk walk walk and she is 77 years old

Take care and do what the Doctor says. Good luck for a speedy recovery.
I had a total hip replacement 18 yrs ago and all is well with it.
