I had the first surgery and was so disappointed I fought long and hard with my medical provider to do the correct thing which is a TKR for someone who has minicus damage it's not worth the rehab and recovery to then 9 months later have to have the TKR which worked and took all the pain away . It's different but no pain and no drugs to have my life back again

Check out "ArthitritisUSA" website. Dr. Farschian, Center for Regenerative Medicine, in Miami Beach, FL, has had amazing results helping people with chronic knee pain. So far, have recovered about 85% of cartilage in my knees.

I have had knee surgery on both knees for meniscus tears, right knee torn in 3 places and left knee torn in 4 places. I suffered with terrific pain and after surgery I am still suffering with pain I can no longer get down on my knees and cannot walk very far without severe pain and swelling. Both knees were torn due to a work injury in a hospital.

i had bad knees in both my legs and the pain was so bad even with medication that i could not sleep well . in 2005 i had rt knee replaced and in 2006 i had left knee replaced , it was the best thing i ever done . i still have to take medication for i have arthritis all over but i would recommend knee replacement to any one who has this problem , i use my legs like i used to with out pain , it is a blessing. you have to do the exercises that the doctor recommends , i was helped with physical thearpy and for 6 weeks at home with a special machine that you were straped into so it would move you in the right position , some pain in healing , but not like before surgery jp

I have two bad knees and have had 7 surgeries on the right and 5 on the left and looking at another on my left knee. It's go to know that replacement maybe a better option vs. the zipper effect.

negative knee surgery results... i get the same feedback from my clients who have had it. I highly recommend stuctural integration or Rolfing for the reorganization of the soft skeleton and neuromuscular patterns of the body. You can change the hardware, but often the software ( over-recruitment patterns, co-contraction patterns ) needs change as well. See rolf.org for someone in your area.

Thanks for the item on "knee problems". I had both knees replaced during the past 3 years with the latest being 6 mo. ago. I had 5 scope jobs previously involving the L/knee prior to the replacement and have experienced no pain whatsoever since then. Had the R/knee replaced 6 months ago and have experienced some pain with it but will enter the second session of PT today and we feel that should clear the present problem up completely. I am 100% satisfied with the "replacement" procedures and I am 82 years of age.....

I have had a total knee replacement in 2004. I drug my leg around for 3 years before I had surgery. I was one of those people that the cartilage had worn out completely due to 35 years on my feet. My knee is great now, no pain. Even when post surgical physical therepy was implemented, there was limited knee flexibility. A normal knee has about 120 degrees of flexion, a post surgical knee will have at least 90 degrees. I have to do knee exercises every day to stay flexible, if I don't, my knee will be stiff and sometimes painfull. But without the surgery, I most certaintly would not be able to walk. I am now looking to have my other knee operated on. Go see an orthopaedic doctor and have x-rays done, he'll be able to tell what kind of surgery you'll have to have, if any. Best of well wishes to those with bad knees.
