Hi all...I have been away awhile recovering from knee replacement. I am now finally feeling like being on the PC, but still not up to sewing. So I will have to get my sewing fix through reading about your sewing adventures!

Glad to here your doing well. Good to see you.

I had my knee replaced April 23rd, so know what you are about. I found that I could rest my leg on a foot stool and sew for a bit with the other foot. Lots of fun.

I had knee replacement done May 7, I was back in the sewing room in 3 weeks but very limited. I have just gotten back to quilting at the longarm. Still can't do a full day in the sewing room but it will get better. Doctor told me not to get impatient sometimes takes 6 months to get back to pre-op activities.

Thanks everyone....and thanks for the personal insights. I think that is one of my worries...how LONG will I need to baby this knee? Of course, I have to keep reminding myself that I have been babying this knee for years.....LOL!!!

It's been 7 years since my knee replacement - I still have to pay attention to where I walk - we live in the country and don't have sidewalks - lots of fields. At least I'm not in constant pain anymore.!

I'm looking at a knee replacement in the near future, would imagine I'll have to have it done before the first of the year. The cortisone shot is wearing off (lasted about 3 months) and I don't want to get to the point where my pain was as bad as it was before the shot...Doc said he'd give another shot but wouldn't last 1/2 as long, and won't give a third...interesting to hear everyone's journey with this!

Welcome back!!! Hope you are feeling better soon!!!

Hope you heal and feel better soon....
