I couldn't wait til tomorrow to share my great news. I saw the orthopedic surgeon today and I do not have to have knee revision surgery - at least not for now. Woo-hoo!!

He is prescribing physical therapy for me to strengthen my hips and quasar and knees. He feels that since my body was so used to carrying all that weight around before and now I'm still walking like that. He used lots of technical terms and stuff but the bottom line I don't have to go thru surgery.

I'm a happy girl!!

Kathy,

     I am so happy for you.   What a relief that must be for you.  Here is hoping that the PT will do what it is supposed to do and that you can get around easier and without so much pain.  Take care.
