  • This is my journey through total knee replacement. come join me as I vlog about it.
    On February 14th 2024 I received the total knee replacement at Holland hospital. The doctor's name was Dr Johnson and was assisted with the Mako robot built by Stryker. This is a vlog that shows my experiences and yours may be differential. Don't take any medical advice from these videos these are just what's happening with my knee and your results may be different. Before starting any exercises make sure to consult your physician.

    Wow, you turned out better that I did. My doctor said 4 years ago, I needed both knees replaced but the VA said I was to young at the age of 50 to have it done and we needed to wait. Now both my knees are shoot. I just had my left done in March and my right will be done in July. I have had some problems and am still having some problems with my left knee. The doctor said is was completely bone on bone and had a lot of spurs he had to clean up. I hd been in a lot of pain for the last 2 years and still have some but nothing like it was. All in all, glad as hell I had it done. They say it will get better over the next year with what I had to go thru. Glad to see you are recovering good.

    Came across your channel tonight. Having my right knee replaced with the Mako system in a couple weeks. I have grade 4 arthritis in both knees, that has really gotten bad over the last six months. Right one is slightly worse so doing it first. Doc said I need to wait three months before doing the second one. Your videos of how you are progressing are really inspirational to me! I am retired but pretty active also, even though it's been very painful. I told the doc that I can't see the post-op pain being any worse than I am currently experiencing! I especially can relate to your getting snagged on a vine or tree root, as I seem to do that a lot now, with my right foot and the right knee feels like it's going to snap in two! So I can't wait to get this done! Although everyone is different, you've shown me that the light at the end of the tunnel can maybe be closer than I may have thought, after watching some other videos!

    I'm 2 weeks in and I'm 120 to 130 radius. I'm having a lot of pain, especially at night. This is my second total knee replacement , last year I had the other one done. I do need pain meds because it hurts so bad. The knee I had done last year feels great, I can't wait until my left knee feels great. I hope you keep doing well.❤

  • @Ringcreevy51

    Thanks for sharing. I need a tka in left knee and I am very apprehensive. I'm older at 73, a retired nurse. You have given me the courage to call the surgeon and get the ball rolling ❤

    My Mum just had a total Knee replacement last Monday and got released on the 29th how do you know when your ready to do short walks?

  • @stuartschatz4164

    Keep up the hope. I was a rare case I guess but I was off the oxy 3 days after surgery and dumped the walker after 5 days. I have virtually no pain except a little after doing PT and an ice pack takes care of that. I started driving about 8 days after surgery with no issues. I don’t take and pain meds at all. I hope some others have a similar recovery. It will be 3 weeks tomorrow and other than a nasty scar I’m ok. I can only walk about a mile but assume that will increase over time.

    Good morning Jerry , I had my wife watch the video with me . Her jaw dropped when she seen how well you are doing . We both really like your cabin with the kitchen in it with the couch . She said we needed one of those . Keep up the great work my friend !! 👍🏻🇺🇸👊🏻

  • @southernadirondackoutdoors

    I hope your said a few words to that branch/vine that hung you up! I was pleasantly shocked on your prior update that you were up and moving around day 1. I had always heard that it was 6 weeks with no weight on that leg...it's surprising how misconceptions spread!

  • @lucilleeidse9407

    I’m waiting for a surgery date for a knee replacement and I’m so encouraged watching your videos- it gives me hope that my recovery will go well!

    I just watched your new replacement series thank you very much for all the information. I tried watching some other folks videos also have talked to friends who have gone through the total need to replacement. You're the first person that I think I could relate to the best athletic and doesn't like a lot of pain meds. And you're so kind to your dog and grandson, clearly not crabby in pain.

    I go in for a knee replacement in August so I have been watching videos of people who have been going through the journey. Thanks for the videos.

  • @michelecunningham5775

    Your video is an inspiration! I can only hope I do half as well as you! Thanks for sharing your experience!

  • @angeladibble

    I'm enjoying these updates, my knee is bad, but not enough for a replacement according to my surgion. What a lovely place to be able to step out the door and walk in, it looks beautiful.

  • @rodneyslone5797

    great video Jerry, you are coming along nicely, glad the knee is not giving you a lot of pain
