My mom had her knee replaced 22 years ago, and the same surgeon replaced it again last year!

The old one had an estimated life of 15 years, so can't complain!

The current procedure is far and away better than it was years ago.

Best wishes for a fast recovery. Work hard at Physical Therapy. It's literally a pain, but it's the path back!
