Dina generously shares her recent experience with a total knee replacement in this episode. So often you are not given the full details on the surgery and what is required in the recovery. No one likes surprises after a big surgery so it’s important to get clarity, especially after a knee replacement. In this episode we discuss:
- Important questions to ask your surgeon or doctor before the surgery
- Surprises she experienced along the way
- The most limiting symptom she had that she was never told about
- How long her recovery took
- How the surgery impacted those around her
- Important considerations prior to making the decision for yourself
