hi vicki
they told me to be over there at 6:45 but they didn't take me bac****il 8:00 and when i woke up it was 10:23, he said it would be a 20 mintue surgery, well the pain for first 2 days i didn't have any they put some medicine in my knee. then it was like it was sore for about four or five more days. it wouldn't as bad as i thought it would be. i am a big baby too when it comes to pain. its still hard to get up but my arthritis is bad too. thats the reason for the wls .need to get something done before im in a wheelchair. i don't know maybe wls will only postpone whats coming anyway . how bad is the pain with the lapband or did you have r ny? well i hope this helps alittle.

Yes they can fix it. I am waiting on Dr. Rodriquez to call me and give me the name of his orthopedic surgeon cause he will know the best surgeons. I AM HOWEVER MAD, NO MORE HIGH HEELS my PCP said ![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/_shared/images/smiley/msn/angry.gif)
That is all I own except 1 pair of flats that are worn out and my tennis shoes. Until I see the ortho I have to have inserts so went and got fitted today for those to wear to help cushion the leg and stabilze it more along with the neoprene brace I have
