well i was in to see the orthopaedic surgeon yesterday and he has decided the only thing to do with my knee is a partial knee replacement, not sure of a date yet, but ive been looking up about partial knee replacement and all i will say is OUCH!!! but if it means no pain i will go along with anything.

Has anyone had a partial knee replacement and if so how you doing with it?

Ashton, i have had a total knee replacement and i wish i'd never had it done,but i have to say some who have had it done find it very successful,i can't comment on the partial replacement, but i will wish you well and i hope it helps you. Please keep us posted of your progress.

Hi, I've had both my knees replaced (total replacements), it is much tougher than having hip replacement (and I've had both hips replaced too!) - but when I think of the pain beforehand its more than well worth it!

My sister is waiting on a partial knee replacement in Oxford, any day now. She is in terrible pain, long wait,, had the joint tidied up about a year ago which gave her some time, but has gOtten worse & worse pain wise.

Good luck, gina

i had my joint tided up in Feb but my knee is much worse. My conslt told me as i work for the hospital trust he will bumped me up the waiting list, some perk that is, but if it gets me sorted sooner i appreciated it.
