Message: [QUOTE="Twolf, post: 3682956, member: 8437"] I had one done 4 years ago & had a great surgeon. Wasn’t fun, but knew that pain would get better, whereas the old college basketball injury with lots of osteoarthritis aggravated by many moons of coaching wouldn’t. Hated the pain meds, but got rid of them in a couple days. My PT was a former player who smiled and said they were going to repay me for all the conditioning pain they endured, but did a great job getting all my flexibility back. Don’t even think about having a replacement joint now. Biggest danger long term is impact from, let’s say, jumping down from pickup tailgate or any impact straight legged. This surgery is something that will make you speak fluent profanity for the first few weeks, and 3 months down the road you will wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. Godspeed [/QUOTE]
