doc says I need double knee replacement

I have only had one knee replaced (so far!) but I can say that it is the best thing to do to improve quality of life. It takes a while to work out all of the kinks after surgery...you have to be totally dedicated to post-op physical therapy to get the most benefit and the quickest recovery. Hunt around for feedback on the best surgeon in your area performing the procedure. If you have to travel 500 miles to get the most recommended doctor, do it.

After a year of living with your new knees you will wonder why you didn't get them replaced sooner. No pain and radically improved mobility is just so wonderful.
