Time to replace the knee?

[Guest guest]

Guys:

I have been lurking for a couple of years. This is my first post. I

need to know when I have to repklace the knees. My Doctor tells me

that 41 yrs old is to young. I take on the average 10 asperin and 8-

10 Aleve a day. I consider myself in fair to good shape. I work out

3-4 times a week(not alot of lower body of cours). I had a scope

done and the seurgon said I had the knees of a 65 yr old.

My wife tells me I walk around like I have a full diaper. By the

way, if anyone has good info for a Doctor/seurgon in the Midland Mi.

area, I'm listening. I already have Dr. , not seeing any

improvement there. For the life of me I can not figure out what line

of thinking my doctor uses.

I have pain when I sit, when I stand, when I walk I have aconstant

limp. I really am getting tired of people asking me why I am limping.

I really need some advice from someone that has been thru it. All I

know is my life is totally turned around from all the pain. I just

do not do anything any more.

Thanks

Kirk
