This is a big decision (for me) at the age of 86......the long recovery is intimidating!!
I would like to hear from anyone who has had a total knee replacement by Mako robot assist.
Outpatient....home same day?
Tylenol level pain relief or narcotics?
Physical therapy regimen......long and drawn out?
Back to normal in as quick as 3 months?
And any other pertinent experience(s).

Had it done back on 11/30/22 on my right knee; was in Orlando; back to work in 2 weeks; playing golf in 5 weeks; wished I’d had it done a lot sooner; getting the left one done in November.
