Gary cool


Gary what the hell kind of doctors or hospitals are your friends going to. I have had two total knee replacements in a 2 year time period 14 years ago and have seen dozens and dozens of people during therapy, none of whom had the same experience as your six friends.
I am not saying anyone should jump into surgery as all avenues of treatment should be explored, but I am happy I had mine done and even happier it wasn't by the same doctors or in the same hospitals as your friends.


I agree Tony good post. But like I said it was just an exploratory question or so called fact finding mission to just hear others opinion & experiences on the topic.Take care
