I had a partial knee replacement (medial side) on March 4th and am doing great!
It's good as new!
I was only in the hospital two days and then did eight weeks of PT.
From what I understand, you have to be just the right candidate for a partial vs. a total. Since only one side of my knee was bone on bone and the other side was perfect, my surgeon did the partial.
I had it done in Michigan since we are not moving down to the Villages until the end of June. I wanted to be ready for all the activities I plan on doing down there!
