Anyone had knee replacement following CRT-D?

I had a CRT-D implanted last October. All has gone well. I have now been told that I need both knees replaced due to osteoarthritis. If anyone has been through a similar situation, I would appreciate any thoughts, comments and experiences.

Thank you in advance.

Hi WBAS, I've not got a CRTD but you might find some helpful experience on the Pumping Marvellous Facebook group. Lots of people on there have CRTD s and have had different procedures. I hope that helps! Best wishes

Pumping marvellous is fantastic for advice. There's also a closed Facebook group called ICD/crtd support uk. The name says it all really, lots of advice there as well
