I'll eventually need to get the other done as well. I can't even imagine doing both at once, though. *shudder*
I hear that as long as I keep up with rehab and have patience, in about 6-8 months I'll wonder why I hadn't done it sooner. If you can get it done before you lose independence (like I have), I'd say go ahead and get it done now. Canada's socialized health system pretty much dictated that I had to wait until I could barely walk/stand before I got the surgery. Hopefully you won't get to that place. If Orthovisc/Synvisc injections are helping, I'd say do those for as long as you can, if money permits. They helped me for a long time, until nothing else could be done. Good luck, Clayton!
