    Action Plan
    Arrogant man. Never explained the xrays or looked at my knees. Made blanket statement that they were full of OA. Nothing I can do. Will only get worse. He made me feel terribly hopeless and in his words, 'depending on how long I live' I'm heading for a knee replacement., Will never go back to him.

    This was my second knee surgery, I botched my first ACL replacement twenty years ago by going too hard too soon. My fault. This time I had much more extensive surgery and so far, so good. Going onto the 5th week now. No pushing it for one full year! :)
