paging Dr Tobra. Dr Tobra, please call...

I think I've heard about people that had a knee replacement done and were walking on it in a very short period of time (days? maybe a week?).

I think a lot depends upon you. Tobra is always talking about "if you smoke, stop now" as far as improving your recovery time. Are you American sized and out of shape? If so, I would think losing weight and trying to get into better shape before hand would help. I can only assume that if your leg muscles were stronger that would be a huge improvement.

But, I'm talking out of my butt. I know that there are several knee replacement threads and folks that'll come along with more personal and/or professional knowledge.
