WOW! Thanks! That's very encouraging. I've heard the sooner you get
moving after surgery, the better. Were you referring to the Giraud
Campbell diet? I have one of his paperbacks.

>>Hi, Montie -
I had a wonderful surgeon which makes all the difference. I had both knees
replaced at the same time and was in the hospital for 3 days. I had
another week at home with a physical therapist visiting and then graduated
to a gym for more exercises for another month. Six weeks after the
surgery, I was hiking up mountains in Guatemala. My titanium knees are
much better than my old ones and I haven't regretted having them replaced
for a minute. I thought I was headed for hip replacement, too, but this
arthritis diet I'm on has completely removed my hip pain.
Good luck! I know you'll be glad you did it after it's all over.
