Just had one done two weeks ago. Will need the other one done too. The surgeon didn"t want to do both at the same time unless it was a life and death situation. Also the pysio therapist says its not an easy situation trying to bring both knees back to full capacity at the same time.Age also makes a deciding factor in this.(I"m 56) With one at a time, even though the other one is wore out it is still stronger and helps with getting around. Do the exercises that they tell you to do as often as they say.this helps with the reducing of the scare tissue and also to get as much mobility out of the new joint as possible. Use lots of ice packs on the leg.Also elevating the leg will also help reduce the swelling.With a total knee replacement, the new knee is ready to go as soon as it is installed. It will carry full weight. Its only the cutting and the stitchs and swelling that will hinder you. Also there will most likely be lots and lots and lots of bruising. Had mine done on the 21st Sept and 90% of the brusing is gone now. I"m so releived to have had this one done to relieve the pain, that words can not describe the good feeling. Good luck and keep us posted. Brian
