I was in a bad car wreck 11.5 years ago and its effects are really starting to show (won't bore you with all the details). Apparently, I turned and was t-boned pretty hard. I have no memory of it at all. My car, which I would still drive today if I could, was a Volvo wagon and I must have had my left leg extended on the clutch because my knee and hip weren't broken, but were injured and years of working on my feet didn't help. All that said, I need a total knee replacement. I was wanting to get out of debt more first, but for survival sake, should I just have it done? I'm early-mid 40s, so I will have to have it done again later on. Ugh.
I can walk and I make sure to exercise daily as much as I can, but I do tire. Wth all that's going on, should I take this on or hold off? I can technically wait a little longer, and have been waiting for the stupid c19 hysteria to blow over, but with their squealing and reeeeeing about primate pox, I may hold off. My husband wants me to do it and he will use his vacation time to take care of me.
What would you lot do?
I don't know anything about it, but there's laser therapy and other out of the box treatments for pain that I hear good things about. Just an idea. I will pray for you. Long term pain is not fun to deal with. I wish you the best.
