I am not totally bone on bone yet, but there is a lot of arthritis, which means
I could get the replacement. I'm only 59, so figure if I can put it off for
awhile, I will. As
May I break in with a question of my own?
I am having a great deal of trouble with cramping and what I just learned is
called hypertonis, which is too much muscle tone and willingness to contract,
and the feedback loop to the brain that would tell the muscle not to contract

Shot in the dark, but my doctors put me on Tegratol. Now it's
original use is for seizures, but one of the side effects is it does
sometimes stop the electrical, lightning bolt sensations. I was on it
for a while, but started having seizures; my body couldn't metabolize

I also take Tegretol, it helps me the most with my banding. Was suprised with

Barbara my husband had double knee replacement in 2006. Whatever pain he had

Well, friends;
Since I last wrote, I am unable to walk very far or even stand up for very
long. Probably just temporary, but the pain in my limbs and torso is really
intense. Gotta see the neuro. I can¹t even imagine how I will get to work
tomorrow, or what I will do once there.

My husband had both knees replaced 6 weeks ago. He spent 3 weeks in the
hospital with the last 2 weeks on an Acute Rehab Unit that was wonderful.
The
first week he had a constant motion machine on his knees to keep the muscles

Thanks, Bobby Jim;
