I actually went to Dr Nguyen regarding my second replacement. He asked about my first and is very concerned regarding my healing process and reaction. After 10 months I am still in pain and I still have heat to the touch and swelling on the knee and it feels as if I still have a damaged joint. I did the blood work on Monday and sent it off to Chicago. Not sure how long the results take?
Dr Nguyen stated he would not proceed on my other leg until my already replaced leg is healed. Not sure what the symptoms are if you are allergic but I am really tired of pain. It is just as bad as prior to the replacement.
