Stories - How my life changed after knee replacement:

I decided to have both knees replaced at the same time as my mother did. I was afraid that if I had one done I would never get the other done, as they were equally bad. It has helped to read about the progress and lack thereof other patients are dealing with. I am almost 3.5 months out from surgery and very disillusioned with my progress. I can straighten both knees completely and range of motion is 110 and 100. The muscle pain is unbelievable. Night time pain is terrible. If anyone has found anything to lessen muscle spasms and stiffness please let me know. I get huge knots in the muscles on the sides and above my knees.
