Take it easy Rocky ; rest up and key your body heal. Over the next couple of weeks, you'll need to work hard at physio. Having had both knees replaced together, I can't stress enough, the importance of the post op physio in relation to getting the. Eat out of your new knee.

Wishing you the very best.

A big operation rocky- do the physio religiously and rest/ ice, in between. Take it easy

Because i had them done together, I also had a commode at home for a couple of weeks- I dropped my I phone in it so knee replacements really cost me!!

Typo- the "best" out of your new knee!!

Hope you're starting to feel a bit better soon. Hopefully using a commode will only be for a very short time and you'll be able to walk to the toilet soon. Take care. x
