I injured my knee in 1980 and had knee reconstruction surgery in 1981. The knee is worn out for a few years

So today I had a total knee replacement operation

I'm on the mend now

My Dad tells me you are in for some pain with the rehab Frans, but then you will feel like a new man.

I doubt if I can have more pain than I had the last 6-8 months or so. The knee went bad in no time. The surgeon says the next 6 weeks will be uncomfortable. Hopefully I would be able to walk again.
 
Knee work eh. Mine wasn't as major as yours. But is still taking awhile to come perfect. Do what the surgeon tells you and you'll be running in no time. Cheers ol mate.
 
Now that looks a bit straighter after the op Frans..

Glad it all went well........


The surgeon said there was a few millimetres of the bones missing as a result of 30 years walking bone on bone. He said the 2 legs are the same length now and the leg will be straight also.
 
Hope your back on both of your feet sons Frans, don't take offence mate but I've seen better legs on a table :D Hope your fully 'operational' soon mate!
 
Good news Frans - heal up well!
I will be facing the same kind of surgery somewhere down the track too.
(The surgeon told me to come back when I cannot walk at all...)

Thanks Nico
The surgeon told me exactly he same. I'm glad it's done now. Just the recovery to do

Ok Frans getting the shocks revalved. All the best. Have you arranged for someone to keep your bikes road ready ie ridden weekly? I'll be over that way this weekend, just sayin'.
 
All the best Frans. My specialist told me some years ago" next time I see you, you will have a knee reconstruction. I have not been back."
Greetings Henk
