Hi!! I'm new here

Hi everyone!! Just wanted to introduce myself and tell everyone hello.  I have a surgery date and I think I have everything taken care of that I have to do before time for the trip to the hospital. My hubby is my biggest supporter and has really done everything possible to make my life easier for the time being.  It is going to be a looong summer.  As soon as Dr Fisher says I can, I will be seeing my orthopedic surgeon again.  I also have to have knee replacement surgery on both my knees.  That's what I mean when I say it will be a long summer and probably fall also..lol I will not be able to exercise as much as I should after the surgery but every pound I lose will make the other 2 surgery rehabs a lot easier.  I am on crutches now. Any advice anyone has to give me is welcome.  Also, I can always use a new friend!! Ann Colorado Springs

Hi, I really do not have any advise, just wanted to say WELCOME and get ready for the ride of your life.  Gayle

Hi, Ann!   Sorry, no advice either.  Just welcoming you to the board and wishing you the best of luck in the future.

Hi Ann, Welcome to the board!  Good luck on your journey.  It won't be easy when you are on crutches.  I wish you the best.  Maybe if you can walk at all after surgery, that would help some.  Or there are the workouts that you can do while you are sitting.  I don't remember what they are called.  I have a friend that does them. I will ask her when I talk to her.  Maybe the surgeons have some ideas also.  I would ask them. Good luck!
