[QUOTE="texelburger, post: 6713278, member: 1905"] I'm due to have a total knee replacement in early April.Had gortex ligaments fitted in 1984 after a rugby injury and they have now broken leaving the knee prone to collapsing.Surgeon says he won't know whether to remove the screws,that held the ligaments, until he's doing the operation. The deterioration of the knee as shown by the x rays over the years is staggering and with no cartilage left the bones are grinding against each other so the time to have the op has arrived.Amazingly I don't suffer much pain and can walk with a slight limp although it becomes very stiff and painful when stood still for a period and takes a while to get it going.The surgeon said I could leave it a little longer until it was unbearable but his opinion was to get it done straight away .
