Knee replacement

Wondering if anyone with Lupus and fibromyalgia have had a total knee replacement. It is done on outpatient basis now. They have you walking on the same day. Wondering how your recovery was?

  1. I am due a knee and hip replacement, but I keep putting them off. Not bad enough yet, I guess. I didn’t realize they were doing them outpatient now.

    1. I haven’t had it personally but in Speaking to other lupus warriors that have had it they all give different accounts of their recovery. It depended on how stable they were with their health prior to surgery. Hope that helps a little. ~Racquel~ lupus team member
