I had both of my knees replaced 5 and 7 years ago. I am now 66. Although replacements are not as great as a healthy knee, the pain relief sure is great! My left knee was done with robotic assist. Can’t say it turned out different than the first one…they both feel the same. The robotic left more scars where more incisions were made on my leg. The pain is very manageable after surgery. I was out of the hospital the same day, gingerly walking around, and doing home therapy right away. You should be pretty decent after 3 months of rehab.
