Hi caroline2.
Unfortunately, it's not always possible to avoid a joint replacement. Towards the end of the month I will be having a Total Knee Replacement(TKR).
I was diagnosed with arthritis in my mid-twenties (I am now 58) due to multiple falls through the years. I have been bone-on-bone (no cartilage/cushioning) for 3 years and have lost my quality of life.
