Hi, you may hear from others on knee replacement issues BUT I deal with nerve damage from hip replacement in 2010...from this surgery my OA knee is way worse as is my foot/ankle, it's all connected. I pretty much got rid of my 5 yr long burning issue but 80% of my thigh is still numb. I do all I can to NOT do knee surgery. Ride my recumbent bike "easy", do cycle work on my bed to keep knees moving, creeking and all. Wear knee support and foot support and use supplements and topicals. I had hip done at 72 and that was just over 5 yrs ago. I use a few pain meds and supplement pain products.

Still thinking about Prolozone injections for the one knee and you can read up on Prolozone and arthritis. There is a lot of info out there. This is my story.
