No more Bextra?

I have arthritis in both of my knees. I have been taking Bextra and it's been working great. I have surgery in less than 1 month and my doctor has taken me off of it and told me that I would never have to take it again??? I realize that as my weight goes down, that there will be less pressure on my joints - but won't I still be hurting because of the arthritis? Has anyone not had to take their arthritis med's after the surgery? Thanks! Cj
