I’d like to be able to walk through the towns we have visited this summer. I plan to revisit these places after knee replacement in December. Hiking in the mountains. And of course I’d love to ski on our ski vacation this year, but that will be post knee replacement and hopefully I’ll just be able to enjoy walking through the town.

@Drew Van Zee let’s see… started about 3 years ago in left knee. I gave up boot camp ☹️ but continued with weight training. Eventually left knee was good, though always a little sore. The right knee started aching in January of this year and got really bad, as in I couldn’t put any weight on it for several weeks, in April. I then gave up a “booty fit” weight training class I was taking. Cortisone shot did not work. Found a new doctor. Got oral steroids, they helped a lot could then put weight on knee. Also wearing an unloaded brace which is helpful for stairs and driving. Then tried a gel injection … nothing! So, I pretty much over it and just want to be able to walk. I’m still doing weight training and riding my bike. I can squat do leg extensions …. I just can’t walk! I’m feeling ready for the surgery. I feel like I’ve done all the recommended exercise etc and just want it over with.
