I had my surgery Monday the 18th. I chose the sleeve. I am 59 years old and married. It took almost a year for me to get to the surgery date. I had a knee replacement in April and I am determined to not wear it out . My other knee will not need a replacement if I lose the weight. Right about yesterday I really started feeling a lot better. I still have a JP drain in the wound and I know I will feel a lot better after having that removed.
Good luck to you.
