Need a Surgeon Near Tallahassee Who Will Do a TKR on Obese Patients
I need 2 knee replacements due to bone-on-bone arthritis in both knees. I'm 54.5 and have fought obesity my entire life. Back in the fall of 2013 I weighed 330 and have now lost 80 lbs. eating low carb but my weight has been stuck for 6 months now. I am virtually immobile due to the knee pain. My doctor said he wouldn't do surgery until I got under 230 (BMI of less than 40). Well, I've gone from a BMI of 56.5 down to 43 - I feel if I could just get this knee surgery so I could MOVE again that I'd start losing weight again.
Does anyone know a good surgeon near Tallahassee who will operate on someone my size?
Dr J. C. Alvarez is doing my TKR down here in Sebring Fl. Look him up.
Good Luck on you.
